Today’s knitters are fortunate to pull from the ensuing “melting pot” of sock-knitting techniques from around the world and blend techniques for shaping heels and toes without much thought about whence they came.
Do you need some extra-sturdy socks for the winter months? Double knit those heels and toes the Weldon’s way to keep your feet safe and warm.
In past posts, “Tips for Practical Sock Knitting” has covered all manner of anatomical-sock-knitting topics from heels and toes to refooting. But we have yet to cover the beginning, which is a very good place to start.
As a self-proclaimed knitting nerd, I was delighted to review Mimi Seyferth’s new eBook, 5 Traditional Albanian Socks to Knit: A Travel Memoir in Stitches.
For 30 (!) stocking patterns and many beautiful illustrations, consider downloading the Weldon’s Practical Stocking Knitter, Third & Fourth Series eBook.
