Celebrate the newest addition to Nancy's family of books. Knitting Vintage Socks contains a collection of 24 designs inspired by 19th century socks from the Weldon's series, published from 1868 to the 1920's. Included is a short history of knitting in Britain and a techniques chapter that offers a look at how patterns were written in 'past times' and how those instructions can be translated into today's knitting. Patterns in this book call for many of our sock yarns. (Hardcover with spiral binding $21.95)
