Sensational Knitted Socks
I’ve lumped these two books together and I’m putting them into the category of “why are these in my library?”. I have NO idea of where they came from or why I have them. I went through a period of being very interested in sock knitting so – maybe?
Sensational Knitted Socks – back cover
More Sensational Knitted Socks – back cover
I think the info in both books outstanding, but the designs and the colors are not to my liking. From the back covers, you can begin to see why I’ve decided to move these two books off my shelves.
Foot sizes for women
From sock yarn to sock basic to tables for sizing socks for women, men and children, Charlene Church’s attention to detail is evident.
Info on sock yarn
Troubleshooting
Again, technical sections are really well done.
Stitch Dictionary
Including stitches that make sense for sock knitting is a plus in both books.
Charts for mosaic designs
While I didn’t care for the color combos of the socks, these charts are well done and easy to follow. See some examples below.
10-stitch mosaic sock patterns
Sock samples
Solid 5-st patterns
If you are a sock knitter or what to be one, these books published in 2005 and 2007 would be perfect. I’m going to have to live without them!
