Classic sock patterns from Interweave Knits magazine are available once again in this inspired collection.
Socks are portable, quick to knit, and universally wearable. New knitters have recently been discovering them in droves, while Interweave Knits magazine has been providing original, beautiful patterns for a decade. Favorite Socks features 25 beautiful and timeless sock patterns for every occasion in a range of techniques, traditions, and designs, many of which have become unavailable as original issues of Interweave Knits went out of print. Highlights include a tutorial for knitting socks on two circular needles, instructions for making resoleable socks, and six completely new designs for those avid knitters who may have every issue of Interweave Knits magazine.
