Portable, quick to knit, and universally wearable, new knitters have recently been discovering socks in droves, while Interweave Knits magazine has been providing original, beautiful patterns for a decade. Featuring 25 beautiful and timeless sock patterns for every occasion in a range of techniques, traditions, and designs, many of these patterns have become unavailable as original issues of Interweave Knits went out of print, but are available once again in this inspired collection. Highlights include a tutorial for knitting socks on two circular needles, instructions for making resoleable socks, and six completely new designs for those avid knitters who may have every issue of Interweave Knits magazine.

In its first decade of publication, Interweave Knits has published dozens of sock designs. The second issue, published in the Spring of 1997, included our first sock pattern by sock designer extraordinaire Nancy Bush, a lovely pair of Estonian-inspired lace socks called Meidas Socks. For the first few years, socks appeared sporadically, but soon we realized that these were among the most popular projects each issue. And why wouldnt they be? Besides the practical benefitssocks are portable, useful, relatively quick, and almost universally wearabletheres both luxurious pleasure and primal comfort in covering your feet (or those of someone you really like) with thousands of knitted stitches.

Interweave Knits and other Interweave publications have offered patterns for knitted socks plain and fancy, eminently practical and arguably decadent, traditional and modern. These socks are made top-down, bottom-up, side-to-side, and in every stitch pattern imaginable. Over the years, many of these patterns have become unavailable as the original issues went out-of-print, although the socks themselves are timeless.

For this collection, weve chosen seventeen of our favorite designs, some of which were published before many current readers first picked up needles and yarn. Youll find socks from old issues, like Meidas Socks, and patterns from more recent issues. Even the most dedicated readers of Knits probably havent seen the Anniversary Socks, also by Nancy Bush, which appeared in the tenth anniversary issue of Knits sister publication PieceWork, or the clever Two-Yarn Resoleable Socks from another sister publication, SpinOff. And because we cant resist an opportunity to create some new classics, weve included six entirely new sock patterns, so even if you have every issue of Knits since 1996, youre sure to find new inspiration.

This blend of new projects and old favorites will keep your needles flying and your feet warm. Look through the pages of this book and share our wonder at the ingenuity of sock knitters everywhere.
