      Synopsis

      Unconventional, rule-breaking socks are part and parcel in this unique guide to sock knitting that includes 15 new sock patterns. The skills of the average sock knitter are increased through design exploration and advanced stitch manipulation, treating the sock as a knitted canvas where elements are strategically and intentionally placed. New designs of floral lace patterns, angular geometric shapes, and unusual cables are presented along with detailed instructions on modifications to suit needs and aesthetics. The incredible range of style and complexity in this guide runs from sweet and simple to delightfully imaginative.

      Beautiful socksby SusanMR

      September 05, 2009: These sock patterns are beautiful and creative. I am just learning how to knit socks. I have tried a few patterns and they are difficult for me to follow. I think an experienced knitter would find these patterns to be challenging. I think anyone would love to get a gift of a pair of socks made from this book.
