Review by Library Journal Review

Sock knitting has a reputation as being a difficult byway of the craft, involving as it does numerous tiny double-pointed needles and an esoteric maneuver called "turning the heel." Interweave Press book editor Budd (The Knitter's Handy Guide to Sweater Patterns), however, sees the satisfaction of wearing your own hand-knitted socks as far outweighing the challenges of making them. Knitters wishing to pick up the skill will find her book invaluable, as it instructs on each element of the process step by step and includes copious photographs and drawings. The excellent collection of 16 patterns ranges from basic to skill-building, e.g., those that introduce color, lace, and texture to basic sock patterns. Essential for all knitting collections.
