This collection of fun sock designs is based on the idea of a hand knitted ‘box of socks’. This is the ultimate guide for knitters who want to create their own box of socks, packed with 24 original patterns for a wide range of different sock designs.
The patterns vary in difficulty from very beginner to more complex so there is lots of choice and plenty to appeal to experienced knitters as well as newbie sock knitters. There are patterns for socks using gradient yarn as well patterns for stranded colorwork designs, textured knits and even cabled designs so you can build your skills and expand your sock knitting know-how while you work your way through the designs. Author and sock fanatic, Julie Lebouthillier, also includes advice on casting on and negative ease as well as a handy guide for sizing down to children’s sizes so you can make matching sets for all the family.
The designs themselves are fun and original with a real range of designs fit for every mood and occasion. There is a beautiful snowflake design for keeping feet cosy in the winter as well as a neon pink design based on cake sprinkles.
