There's more to socks than meets the eye, and in this exclusive book preview we'll set you up with the essential information that will have you wondering why this niche craft isn't already a part of your life.
Expert Guidance In An Unexplored Niche
If you're looking to experiment with your crafting, Anna Nikipirowicz’s innovative book tackles the current lack of information in this niche head on. With the four basic sock types fully explained, you'll quickly nail the fundamentals of sock crochet and move on to enjoy the treasure trove of tips for customisation in both fit and style. With so much to explore, even the most inexperienced crocheters will soon have their hooks flying.
The easy-to-follow guides for each sock construction method are handy in helping crafters discover their style; are you a cuff down or toe up kind of crocheter? Would you prefer to snuggle your feet into an afterthought heel, or a short row heel?
Confused? We've got you - here's a quick lesson to help you remember the basics: The afterthought heel and short row heel are the two main sock types. The afterthought heel is shaped at the very end of the crochet process (big surprise) once the leg, toe, sole, foot and cuff are all completed. They’re easy to make, and go perfectly with the lace or colourwork styles. On the other hand (or foot), the short row heel is created as you work on the sock, resulting in a seamless look and closer fit - which will you experiment with first?
Beautiful, Comfortable Makes That Your Feet Will Love
Wondering where you'd wear your new creations? Don't worry; Anna thought about that too!
Each sock type comes with tips to help you get the most out of them based on their materials and structure. Need some slipper socks? Moss Stitch socks are ideal for indoor wear, or around the garden paired with wide shoes. Is relaxation your biggest priority? Fair Isle Pine Tree socks are best suited for cold, dark nights spent snuggling under your cosiest blanket, sipping a nice hot drink.
The wellbeing benefits of crochet are endless. The repetetive motions are a tonic for anxious minds, and the sense of accomplishment that comes with completing a creative project can't be beaten - and with all the new additions to your wardrobe, your achievements will be on display for all the world to see!
