From cast-on stitches to binding off, this handbook details the simple
steps needed to turn seemingly complicated sock knitting projects into
easy and enjoyable activities. Helpful photographs and instructional
drawings ensure that even inexperienced knitters will be able to produce
high-quality socks and handle more complicated techniques, such as the
Kitchener stitch at the toe. Using instructions for five different
sizes--from child through adult large--at five different gauges,
knitters can produce styles ranging from delicate dress socks to thick
and furry slipper socks. More adventurous knitters can add variety and
flair by following one of 16 unique designs or trying one of the dozens
of rib, cable, and lace patterns provided. With plenty of tips and a
handy stitch dictionary, this guide unleashes the creativity and fun of
sock knitting.
