Recycling may be applied all the way to the very clothes you wear. Getting Started Knitting Socks by Ann Bud will teach you how to recycle your old socks. In addition, Ann's book will teach you how to knit new socks. Perhaps you may even want to sell some socks you knit. You could start a home business knitting new pairs of socks. If not for sale, colorful home knitted socks make excellent Christmas gifts or baby gifts. You may also knit socks for your own family. The best hobbies are ones that provide practical benefit as well as satisfy your artistic impulse.
From cast-on stitches to binding off, this handbook details the simple steps needed to turn seemingly complicated sock knitting projects into easy and enjoyable activities. Helpful photographs and instructional drawings ensure that even inexperienced knitters will be able to produce high-quality socks and handle more complicated techniques, such as the Kitchener stitch at the toe.
Using instructions for five different sizes—from child through adult large—at five different gauges, knitters can produce styles ranging from delicate dress socks to thick and furry slipper socks. More adventurous knitters can add variety and flair by following one of 16 unique designs or trying one of the dozens of rib, cable, and lace patterns provided. With plenty of tips and a handy stitch dictionary, this guide unleashes the creativity and fun of sock knitting.
