Nancy Bush designed this book to travel! Its long, skinny format and spiral binding make it the perfect size to throw in the knitting bag as you head out the door. Its eighteen sock patterns are so easy and fun, with the simplest, most graphic, easy-to-follow instructions for learning to knit, start to finish. Everything is with you, a conversion chart to help you substitute yarns, graphics and text for various methods of casting on, joining stitches, decreases, heel turns, chain stitch, a list of sock yarns with their yards/meters, weight, stitch per inch/cm and needle size. The sock photos are full color and the patterns include suggested yarn, needles, gauge, finished size and a tip about the design or any special stitch included in that pattern. If the sock has a design in it a chart is included with the written directions. Nancy says; "Many of the patterns are 'pretty easy', a few are more challenging. The designs flow so that after a couple of repeats, you should be able to sail along with few glances at the text or graph." The book has a hard paperbound cover with spiral inside, 6 inches x 11 inches, 96 pages, color photos and illustrations.$18.95 |
