DESCRIPTION

Every knitter understands the allure of sock yarn. It slips easily into a handbag, comes in endless variations, and represents a dazzling array of possibilities. Best of all, it’s relatively inexpensive, making it an affordable splurge. And knitting stores are devoting more and more shelf space to the ever-growing range of choices. As a result, many knitters find themselves with veritable “collections” of sock yarn — dozens, sometimes even hundreds of skeins — in their stash.Fortunately, sock yarn can be used for more than simply keeping toes toasty. In Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders: 101 Patterns That Go Way Beyond Socks! veteran knitter Judith Durant has chosen not simply inventive sock patterns but also more than 5 dozen inspired patterns for other items that can be created from a single skein of sock yarn. The latest in Storey’s enormously popular One-Skein Wonders series, Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders offers one-of-a-kind patterns for baby clothes, mittens, scarves, hats, jewelry, cozies, bags . . . even a dog sweater and a lamp shade! Contributed by yarn shops and designers throughout North America, the patterns are as fetching as they are fun to knit. Knitters of every skill level will find tantalizing challenges; some knit up in fewer than three hours, others make creative use of sock yarn leftovers, and several make heirloom-worthy gifts. Collectively, these patterns bring out the best of sock yarn . . . whether variegated or solid-colored, self-patterning or hand-painted. Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders has an easy-to-browse layout, four-color photos throughout, step-by-step instructions, clear illustrations and charts, and stylish patterns. With this book in their knitting bags, needlecrafters will take their stash of sock yarn well beyond stockinged feet to a delightful world of possibility.The Author:Judith Durant is the editor of the best-selling One-Skein Wonders series and author of Knit One, Bead Too and Never Knit Your Man A Sweater *unless you’ve got the ring!

Sock yarn—that durable, practical mainstay—

has never been more popular. Indeed, it’s hard

to choose from the expanding array of variegated,

hand-painted, self-striping, and solid yarns on the

market, many of them machine washable. It’s so

irresistable, why not use it for more than socks?

Enter Sock Yarn One-Skein Wonders, the fi rst-

ever guide to everything else you can make with

a single skein of this versatile yarn. With 101

patterns for everything from baby clothes to

evening bags, this latest title in Storey’s best-

selling One-Skein Wonders series takes sock

yarn where it’s never gone before. Even the

most seasoned knitters will fi nd new inspiration

here. And at just one skein apiece, these projects

fi t any budget—and slip into a handbag or brief-

case for knitting on the go.

Sock Yarn Can Do Anything!

From Head to ToeWhen you think of sock yarn, don’t start—or stop—at your feet.

One-Skein Wonders series editor Judith Durant, also a founding edi-tor of Interweave Knits magazine, has collected more than fi ve dozen patterns for hats, scarves, shawls, leg warmers, toys, jewelry, window treatments, and more. There’s plenty to busy knitters of all ages and abilities. How about a beaded cloche that takes just 3 hours to stitch? Fingerless gloves that sprout a bouquet, or a slim tank top that can be dressed up or down? And then there’s the baby-sized kimono, the 50s-style evening bag, the Mobius earrings, the workhorse of a sack that can haul the groceries . . .

Knitters will never look at sock yarn the same way again!
