Charlene Schurch

Fantastic book. First book that finally helped me learn how to knit a sock. Very well written and easy to understand. It is like the author is talking to you. I highly recommend this book.

Readers learn how to create oodles of original socks with ten basic sock designs and loads of stitch patterns to make it easy. Full color.

This volume provides complete instructions for 36 mittens, two socks and two hats in the colourful geometric designs of the Komi people, an ethnic minority living in the northeast of European Russia. Each project is shown in colour and accompanied by charts and patterns.

This book has taken me through almost all of the socks I have knitted. It is my go to sock book. It is better than sensational, although the name is quite catchy. Part of me wants to put out the buckage and the time to go to Portland this August to take a class with Schurch at the Sock Summit. (details look at www.yarnharlot.ca/blog)
