This revised edition contains 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. Discontinued yarns have been replaced by current yarns, and modifications that Nancy has learned since the book was first published have been added. Also new is a section on Estonian-inspired socks.
Folk Socks offers eighteen sock patterns pulled from European and British traditions, plus a chapter on essential sock-knitting techniques for heel turns, toe shaping, and top ribbing for knitters of all skill levels.
