Description

 Liberate yourself from pattern  books! Make a sock to meet  your own unique needs, for your  size foot, and in your choice of  yarn. Learn how to create a top-  down or toe-up sock pattern for  any yarn, and for any foot. I’ll show you how to custom fit a sock for specific requirements, how to make your own design customizations like pattern stitches and colorwork.
