The last thing I need is another sock pattern book, but I just couldn't pass this one up. It has socks for every skill level and gives many, many, many options for working with hand-painted yarns so they don't "puddle" into blobs of color. Those patterns alone are worth the price of the book. There are even more great patterns, though. Lace socks, felted socks, Fair Isle socks, you name it, this box of sock patterns has it. As soon as I got my Little Box of Socks, I found one of the patterns to be just perfect for some very persnicketty sock yarn I have - the pattern will work beautifully with it - and the socks are already cast on. Talk about motivating! Even if you own every sock book there is, this Little Box of Socks is well worth having for its own unique designs.

I just received this great little box of sock patterns and I already have planned a few projects using some of my special single and multi colored hand-dyed stash that I've been hoarding while waiting to find patterns worthy of using it on. There are so many great patterns in this "box" with lots of really interesting textures. I love how each pattern is on a separate folded laminated card which is great for those of us that keep sock projects stashed in our purses for on-the-go knitting.

This is a great sock book! 20 laminated patterns in a little box .Perfect for those who like hand dyed yarn., but works well for those who dont.I planned out my next 3 socks One already on the needles the day i got this book!

Lots of choices, very nice presentation, good instructions. What more could you ask--free yarn? I really like it and am glad I bought it.

I love my little box of Socks patterns. I picked one out right away after getting it and started knitting. I can't wait to pick the next pattern. There are so many great patterns and very easy to follow. I use a highlighter to mark my spot on the pattern and it wipes right off when I'm done. For anyone who likes to knit socks, this is for you.

I have already started making a pair of socks from this I find it easy to take with me. Seller was timely and product was in good shape.

I absolutely LOVE the patterns in this box. This is a very nice little box of sock patterns that travel very nicely. Since socks are such portable projects, the patterns in this box fit that motif very nicely. There are patterns in this box for the new, intermediate, and experienced sock knitter that will keep you knitting happily no matter where you are traveling to. Each pattern card is also laminated which is great because it keeps the pattern from getting ruined. This is a must have for every traveling sock knitter :)

Nifty little collection of sock patterns. I'm always looking for new ones and this fills the bill.

THE LITTLE BOX OF SOCKS by Charlene Schurch and Beth Parrott provides some 20 creative sock projects for knitters to produce, from different colors and textures to a range of styles. These take the form of 'project cards' with sizes, supply lists, and step-by-step directions perfect for avid knitters.

Something to satisfy every knitter? Not in my book. 20 patterns, only one toe-up and it is without a doubt the ugliest sock ever, with it's huge lacy flounces. The concept of a box of patterns is great, but the patterns are a great disappointment.
