Synopsis
Sock knitters everywhere know the frustration of Second Sock Syndrome. It goes something like this: A cute new sock pattern and soft, foot-warming yarn lead to many happy knitting hours, resulting in . . . ONE sock. The first sock is done (and it's adorable!) but pattern distraction sets in. Who wants to knit the same project all over again? There are so many new projects waiting to be discovered. Melissa Morgan-Oakes ends the drudgery of the second sock by showing knitters how to cast on and knit two socks at one time on one long circular needle! Her method is captured in step-by-step photographs, clearly showing knitters how to turn out two socks at the same time. Goodbye to lonely, abandoned single socks. Hello to unlimited pretty pairs, knit on one needle (often finished on the same day), and worn with pride and that gratifying sense of accomplishment. Oakes is a dedicated knitter, knitwear designer, and knitting instructor who has known the frustration of Second Sock Syndrome. Her easy-to-learn technique enables sock stitchers to adapt any pattern to her two-at-a-time method. But before experimenting with other patterns, readers will want to try Morgan-Oakes's 15 original designs. Fun and creative, they include simple to complex choices, a variety of yarn weights, and designs for women, men, and children. Socks are small, relatively inexpensive, and interesting to knit -- a favorite portable choice of busy knitters. Keep the fun in sock-stitching with the innovative new technique that produces two socks -- yes, that's one sock for each foot -- at the very same time!, Knitting one sock is fun and rewarding, but finishing its partner can become a chore that leaves well-intentioned knitters suffering from "second sock syndrome." With this two-at-a-time technique you can easily finish a full pair of socks on the same day. Step-by-step photographs illustrate how to cast on and knit two socks together on one long circular needle, whatever the pattern or shape. Lonely, abandoned single socks are now a thing of the past, There is nothing more gratifying to a knitter than completing a project--it's been on the needles for days or weeks, the tails have been woven in, and the knitter can finally wear the finished item with pride. That is, of course, unless the project of choice is a pair of socks. The sense of accomplishment, pride, and elation felt upon finishing the first sock is quickly dispelled when the reality of starting all over on that second sock sets in. For those knitters who long for warm and cozy knitted socks, but dread the thought of having to knit the same thing twice, "2-at-a-Time Socks" comes to the rescue with a breakthrough technique for knitting two socks at once., Knitting one sock is fun and rewarding, but finishing its partner can become a chore that leaves well-intentioned knitters suffering from "second sock syndrome." With this two-at-a-time technique you can easily finish a full pair of socks on the same day. Step-by-step photographs illustrate how to cast on and knit two socks together on one long circular needle, whatever the pattern or shape. Lonely, abandoned single socks are now a thing of the past!

  • Great Book

    My sister had this book and I had looked through hers. If you hate making that second sock this is the book for you. I'll admit that the first few rows were very confusing and if you've never knitted socks like this before (or only one or two pair of socks) then do the little sample socks using two different colors of yarn--I had my sister to help guide me through the first few rows!!! I have finished my first pair of socks and will start another pair very soon. The instructions are excellant--just follow step by step and there are also pictures of each step. Bev

  • The title is appropriate.

    Within 30 pages the technique of knitting 2 socks simultaneously on a long circular needle is explained and illustrated with annotated full color pictures, and then the rest of the book has illustrated and charted patterns. Along the way tips are given and encouragement. This is excellent for a knitter with some experience.

    This is a very well written book with great detail and pictures. I have learned to knit toe up now to knit two at a time. Thank you for the quick service.
