Socks are a quick, portable knitting project, but with numerous ways to
create the heels and toes, they can seem complex. This accessible book
breaks down the key construction techniques with step-by-step tutorials
and examples, to demystify the process for new knitters and inspire more
confident knitters with new stitch patterns and finishes. Measuring
guides, yarn advice and design considerations also ensure you can
produce socks that are not only well-knitted, but fit well and are
comfortable too. Topics covered include: types of yarn, needles and
equipment, including how to use circular and double pointed needles;
sock construction techniques for different heels and toes and finally,
sizing and measuring with consideration to different sock styles and
purposes. There are thirteen complete sock patterns to practise the
different construction techniques.
