This now-classic collection of sock patterns by world-renowned knitting instructor and designer Lucy Neatby, comprises a clever approach to sock knitting. Written with self-patterning yarn in mind, each of the patterns features a different and clever combination of heel, toe and cuff structures which can be swapped between the designs. From the Simply Splendid Sock--a great pattern for first-timers--to the dramatic Estonian Fishtail patterned Mermaid Socks, each contains tips and techniques that you will never have seen before. Suitable for advanced-beginner through expert knitters, the book is also loaded with information on choosing yarn and tools, custom-sizing, fitting, and finishing. Full-page, full-colour images of each design help you to see the structure of the socks, and clear drawings illustrate each technique.
