Love these books,
By Charlottesbooks "Charlotte K." (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sock Journal: Knit the Year in Socks (Paperback)
I bought The Sock Calendar because it was so handsome and then decided to learn to knit the socks as well. The patterns are very easy to follow and I can't keep up with friends' requests for hand knitted socks. The Sock Journal is even better as the author included beaded knitting and more optional variations in the patterns. And a very useful writeup for yarn substitutions.

This review is from: The Sock Journal: Knit the Year in Socks (Paperback)
I love these patterns for beautiful and unusual hand-knitted socks. I'm a new knitter and haven't yet made socks but read so much about the designers earlier book The Sock Calendar. Then saw this new one and had to get it.
The patterns are very easy to read and follow even for a beginner. The colorful photos are pretty as can be. I highly recommend this book to anyone knitter and especially to people who are into the new craze of knitting socks.

This review is from: The Sock Journal: Knit the Year in Socks (Paperback)
I really do like this book (and the Sock Calendar) but disagree with one thing. These patterns skip a few of the beginning steps so if you need step by step directions from beginning to end, and plan to attempt these patterns without an experienced knitter nearby, access to the internet or a good library you may get stuck.
