    I Said I Would NEVER Knit Socks- This Book Changed That
  

*by C***L on Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2014*

I hated knitting when I was small.  I vowed I would never knit.  I almost got by with it until I learned how to spin my own yarn (long story).  Then I had to learn to knit to make the yarn look good since crochet made it too stiff.  I began to knit hats and gloves and all sorts of things, but I vowed I would NEVER knit socks.  Talk about tedious and a lot of work for nothing.  I had a hard time knitting to make something fit, and socks was definitely not on my to-do list.  I especially was concerned that the socks would be prickly (I have sensitive skin) and frustrating to wear.Then came this book.WHAT IS THIS BOOK LIKE?This book is one of the best laid out books I have come across, especially for knitting socks.  I have never seen such a well organized book on the topic and the way it is set up is amazing.GAUGE--First you pick your yarn and needle- and there are charts inside that cover what size goes with what and approximate yardage needed for what size.--Then you knit up a swatch of stitching with your chosen yarn and needles.--Measure your gauge (she shows you how)PATTERNIn the basic pattern of sock (which is what I started with) you choose the pattern based upon your stitches per inch of the swatch that you knitted and measured.  The pattern is well laid out and she easily walks you through the steps.If you get stuck on a written section, you can refer back to the beginning of the book where Ann explains in great detail what each step looks like with illustrations and sometimes photos of actual socks.  There is nothing left to chance in this book.  All is explained and laid out VERY well.CHANGESYou can add or change any section of the sock (such as the back re-enforced heel stitch) by referring again to the beginning section where she lays out different stitch ideas.  All you have to do is substitute the instructions with the new ones in that section and you are good to go!DO THEY FIT?I have to say that these socks fit PERFECTLY.  I have made three pair of the now, and each pair, although with different yarns, fits just right.SPECIAL HELP THAT I DOWhat I find especially helpful for me is that I copy off the pages of the sock pattern that I am making (as well as any other pages I might incorporate) by a copy machine or my printer.  Then I am able to pencil in all that I want to on the page and print a new one for each pair of socks.  That way the book is not going to be taken up with constant markings and erasures like I started doing.WHAT YARNS HAVE I USED WITH WHAT NEEDLES?I have found that the Clover 9 inch circular needles in size 2 was great to use with the Knitpicks Hawthorne yarns or stroll sock which I dyed myself.  I am about to embark on using the Chiaogoo 12 inch circular needle in a size 1 to see if I can tighten up the stitches at all for a more industrial sock, but the size 2 was fine and I have worn my first pair tons of times and it wears well.FINAL COMMENTSThis book changed my life- literally.  I am now so excited to make socks it is ridiculous.  I stay up late at night and knit- in fact, my most recent socks I am working on now, are almost done and I just started them five days ago.  I hated knitting with thin yarn and small needles.  This book gave me the confidence, desire and satisfaction of wearing my own amazing socks.As a bonus, if you want to have some fun, Ann has a Ravelry board where you can post your creation and she and others will stir you enthusiasm all over again!

    Just what I needed
  

*by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2024*

Socks are small but they are not simple! I was determined to learn how to knit socks and this book has been so helpful. Very clear instructions with clear photos as well. The author provides patterns for yarn of different weights for feet of all sizes. I had looked elsewhere for information and hadn't found anything as easy to understand as this.
