New techniques
A really nice book for those of us that don't know how to knit this way. As I struggle with the grafting of toes on the top down method, I can't wait to try this method. Really pleased with this one. While it's not the only book on the subject, it is one to recommend.

Socks - toes up
A great book for those who love knitting socks. Detailed and easy to follow instructions. Liked learning how to make socks fit any size foot. After mastering the cast-on technique decided it is the only way to knit socks.

Great way to start
I've only been knitting four years and the idea of knitting socks seemed daunting. This book made it seem simple. My Christmas list just got easier and even my husband is happy with my efforts.
