About
"Kick up your heels with the book that launched the sock-knitting craze - *masterfully updated!*
Originally published in 1994, *Folk Socks* kicked off the sock-knitting phenomenon, as it taught knitters in North America all about how to knit socks with a heritage, using Nancy Bush's careful instructions, charts, and illustrations. This collection of 18 sock patterns showcases Northern European traditions, including boot socks, lacy stockings, kilt hose, cabled and clocked socks, and more. You'll also find a chapter on essential sock-knitting techniques for shaping heels and toes.
In addition to exploring the same in-depth history and the same step-by-step instruction from Nancy Bush that sock knitters have come to love and depend on, *Folk Socks* provides updated information on new yarns as well as modifications. Give your feet the happiness they deserve when you add this updated classic to your collection!"
