Product Description

Never worry about slouchy cuffs, stretched-out heels, or too-tight toes again!

From master sock knitter Priscilla A. Gibson-Roberts comes this ingenious little book, packed with knowledge meant to empower you on your sock-knitting journey. Each section includes hand-drawn illustrations, clear, detailed instructions, and a space for you to record custom sock measurements and notes for you and your most sock-worthy loved ones. Gibson-Roberts includes instructions on how to create a customized short-row construction for both top-down and toe-up socks that's designed to be incorporated into other patterns.

The latter half of the book draws from Gibson-Roberts' extensive research on both Eastern and Western sock-knitting traditions. She includes a plethora of colorwork, textured, and lace patterns, all with the information you need to go forth and apply them to your own socks! There are even sections on calf-shaping for tall socks, repairs and reinforcements, and how to incorporate sock-shaping techniques into other projects.

This book is ideal for the experienced sock knitter looking to up their game, aspiring pattern-writers and off-roaders, and new sock knitters who are seeking to understand why their pattern is written the way it is.

"Wonderful little shop! I started knitting again after a year when I thought I’d never pick it up again . And the staff at cowgirl yarn is the best! They are so kind and encouraging. They go out of their way to help. They have a great selection of fiber, tools, needles everything you need. They are priced well. It’s a place where I feel welcome and encouraged to do my best and be myself."
