LIBRARY JOURNAL STARRED REVIEW
Socks are often the perfect small canvas for knitters to test out intricate stitch patterns or colorwork motifs. In this book, Finnish knitwear designer Laitinen (Icelandic Knits) gives readers that opportunity. In 20 patterns influenced by cultures and locations around the world, this book, through sock knitting, takes readers on a journey from China and Scotland to Antarctica and everywhere in between. While this is not for those new to knitting socks, intermediate and advanced knitters will appreciate the author’s clear instructions and thoughtful notes. She provides detailed information on exactly how much yarn she used for each pattern, which helps readers looking to make yarn substitutions. Extensive charts, often including individual ones for each foot, are included for each pattern.
VERDICT From lace to cables to complex colorwork, sock knitters will be sure to find something that appeals to them in this beautifully photographed and delightful collection of patterns. Perfect for intermediate to advanced sock knitters looking to take on a challenge.
