Happy Feet

Our good friend Kate Atherley has a new sock book and we should have it in the store very soon. I was told beginning of August. And it is the beginning of August so please hurry. Winter is coming and you don't want to have cold feet.

Whether you knit them toe-up or top-down, getting just the right fit on hand knit socks can be a major challenge! In Custom Socks, Kate Atherley sets out to teach knitters of all levels the skills and tools they need to understand sock fit, and to knit a pair of socks that fit properly. She calls on her years of experience as Knitty's Managing Technical Editor, where she has edited hundreds of sock patterns, to share this information in a way that is easy to understand with patterns that inspire.

So go ahead and treat yourself to these 15 original sock patterns that are easily customizable and work with any needle configuration. Your feet will thank you!

 

Did you know that August is our Birthday Month? The store opened in August 1987. I'd like to give you the exact day but it was so long ago that I can't remember.

To celebrate we are going to offer different items at a discount throughout the month.
