Product Description

Review
Whether you want to try out some easy patterns or a new challenge such as rib, cable or intarsia, you can do it faster on a sock than a jumper, and whatever your taste, there's something for you here. Along with the usual pattern details, each design has a short introduction providing information about the yarn, designer and how to wear the socks, while on the opposite page the finished design is beautifully photographed. We love the spiral-bound spine, too. There's nothing more annoying than a book snapping shut while you're knitting! --Simply Knitting, Dec 07

Product Description
Why do knitters love socks? Socks are portable, useful, fairly quick to knit, and universally wearable. In "Favorite Socks", Interweave offers 25 beautiful and timeless sock patterns for every occasion in a range of techniques, traditions, and designs. Many of these patterns have become unavailable as original issues of interweave Knits went out-of-print - now they are handily bound together in this inspired collection. The adventurous knitter will find a classic, varied compilation of socks from renowned sock designers including Nancy Bush, Evelyn Clark, Priscilla Gibson-Roberts, and more. Patterns have comprehensive instructions for the various techniques used. Highlights include a tutorial for knitting socks on two circular needles and instructions for making resoleable socks. You'll even find 6 brand-new "classics" for those avid knitters who may have every issue of Knits since 1996. It's all here: the traditional cuff-down, toe-up, heel and instep knitted separately; ribs, cables, lace, color patterns; delicate and elegant socks, sturdy and functional socks; socks for men and women, every season, every foot - and any knitter.

5.0 out of 5 stars more glorious socks, 13 Aug 2007
By L. Holmes "setters" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Before I start I have to say I love knitting socks & am pretty confident doing so!

This book is laid out well, with a hardcover but also ring bound pages so i t will lie flat when you are reading your patterns. It is a collection of 25 patterns, of which I will probably be knitting at least half of them. The pictures are clear although I would like more but I always want more pictures as I like to see exactly how each bit is meant to look before I change it.

I would strongly recommend this book to sock knitters, it may not be so useful if you've never knitted a sock before,

5.0 out of 5 stars Like a sweet shop of lovely patterns, 20 May 2009
This is a delicious book, with many patterns I want to knit! Having already finished the 'Embossed Leaves' socks, with instructions so easy and clear I could almost knit them with my eyes closed, I am ready to get on with the cover socks. The instructions for various casting on methods is really useful, so I've learned something new here as well. A book to treasure!
