Sock yarn can be used for much more than socks! Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders is an irresistible compilation of 101 original patterns for baby clothes, mittens, scarves, hats, jewelry, cozies, bags--even a dog sweater and a lamp shade--that all use just a single skein of sock yarn. Contributed by yarn shops and designers throughout North America, the patterns are as fetching as they are fun to knit. Knitters of every skill level will find the perfect project: some knit up in fewer than three hours, others make creative use of sock yarn leftovers, and several make heirloom-worthy gifts. With this book in your knitting bag, your stash of sock yarn will be gone in no time.

I have all of the One Skein series and I think this is the best one. This one seems to have the biggest variety of patterns that I would actually want to use. The author included a photo on the same page as the pattern (this was not done on other one-skein books) -- this is a big improvement in browsing! Sock yarn is my favorite to buy -- pretty colors, typically very soft, but I get tired of knitting socks. Perfect book for me!
There are sock patterns (of course), scarves, lace items, shawls, gloves & fingerless mitts, baby clothes, tea cozy, dog clothes, placemats, lampshade, ornaments, bags, pillows, hats (kid & adults).... and lots of other things, too.
The shawls look especially fun to try! One very nice note: the book is in color and you can see how the varigated sock yarns would look knitted up! This is HUGE to me, I often buy varigated sock yarn only to find that it pools and does odd patterning (yuck), but with most patterns in One Skein, I can see how those pretty-in-hanks yarns will actually knit up! YAY!
One of the best new knitting books of the season! I'm ready to make a dent in my sock yarn stash!

As a sockaholic with a large stash of sock yarn, I waited with great anticipation for this book! And I was not disappointed! I love the variety of patterns, and want to knit many of the projects - including a couple of the sock patterns! There are some beautiful scarves and shawls, as well as some cute baby and doll clothes. This is one book I shall be going back to time and time again!

I cannot wait to start on some of the projects in this book. The scarves, gloves, and shawls are wondrous and challenging. The Floral Fingerless Gloves are adorable. The Gambit Unisex Scarf should be as much fun as knitting a Landscape Shawl with all its pattern changes. There are sock patterns here, but for those of us who collect and stash sock yarn because it's pretty, this is our book.

Good book
I started the baby socks and plan to do the matching hat. The sock pattern was good to follow and the socks came out very well. I plan to start the baby hat.
