The ultimate guide to every aspect of sock knitting for knitters of
all abilities. Whether you've never picked up a double pointed
needle in your life or you've already started your sock knitting
journey, this book will help you on your way. The Sock Knitting
Bible will break down all the different techniques and show wannabe
sock knitters that there is nothing to be scared of. Covering
everything from casting on to colourwork and everything in between,
knitters won't find a better reference book for all their sock
knitting needs. Whether you want to knit toe up, cuff down or even
two at a time socks, we've got it covered. Sock knitting is the
perfect portable project too - once you know the basics you can dip
in and out until they are flying off your needles! There are a lot
of sock pattern books out there but this is more than a pattern
book - it covers all the different techniques and methods for sock
knitting! There are step-by-step instructions for all the various
sock knitting techniques so that instead of sounding like a foreign
language making socks becomes your second language. There are also
step-by-steps instructions for three basic socks so that you can
follow them even if you are an absolute beginner and then start to
choose your preferred method for sock making. Author Lynne Rowe
explains what kind of yarns are best suited to different styles of
sock and shares her techniques for how to get the best finish. We
also look at the different kinds of tools available for making
socks so you can experiment with double pointed needles, the magic
loop method and small circular needles as well as innovative new
products such as flexible dpns until you find your own favourite
method. With this book you can put that beautiful skein of hand
dyed yarn you couldn't resist to good use by making the perfect
pair of socks because in addition to the extensive techniques there
are also 10 projects by some of the most exciting and talented sock
designers, illustrating a number of the different knitting methods
and styles. Here you will find stripes, fair isle, cables, lacy,
sparkly and snuggly socks: a pattern for all your needs. It won't
be long before you are delighting your friends and family with your
new found skills - just be sure to make yourself a pair too! But be
warned: sock knitting is addictive!
