Hey everyone, I am excited to tell you all that I just purchased “from the Internet” a new book on knitting socks. I met a lady at a local knit-in and she swears by it and her socks are REALLY nicely shaped. The others call her “the sock lady”. So I assume she’s been around the sock block once or twice.
I thought – I want to do that too…and since I have the Knit Picks yarn also on the way, I’ll need a pattern or two…
:XX: :XX: hello Lori, I’ve not seen the book, it looks quite interesting!! Let us know what u think of it! I knitting socks & have sock (&lots more) yarn coming from knitpicks, too
FYI…I was just at their site & several new yarns are out…so exciting!!! :happydance: :happydance:
Wow - this book looks incredibly detailed! I’ve never heard of it, but I’d love to know what you think of it when you start using it. I love the pictures I can see on the site.
I’m in the process of doing my fifth sock and my first on circular needles and I have to say it’s MUCH easier and MUCH faster. Do let us know how you like the book. I’m actually interested in it, too.
Ok I want it!!! I’m finishing my first sock on 2 circs, and am ready to try 2 socks on 2 circs!!! Love new things…ooooh mother’s day is coming up, maybe I’ll plant some hints!!
hey u guys. didn’t know exactly what the book was … u know me…i am die hard 2 socks at a time ON DPNS…so i must still stick with the tried and oh, so true method for me
I also would really like to know what you think of the book after you’ve tried it out. I like the look of the socks on the website. The pair that I’m almost done with is not all that attractive until you get it on your foot and then it’s just fine. I guess that’s all that matters. It’s super comfy. I wonder if the toe-up ones are as comfortable. They probably are, I just don’t know anyone who has made both & can compare.
