So comfy and soft, hand-crocheted socks are one of life's ultimate luxuries! Crochet expert Darla Sims presents 15 cozy toe-warmers for the family and also teaches you how to design your own. There are socks and slipper socks for children, women and men. From anklets to add-on ribbing socks, top-down socks to sports socks, the varying styles offer something to please everyone. The stitch patterns are fun, too and include shells, lace designs and faux V-Stitch. With the information provided, you can also create original designs just by changing the yarn, style and size! Treat a loved one with their own crocheted socks - there's simply no better way to pamper their feet!
About the Author: A Washington native who crochets, knits and sews, Darla Sims says she prefers to design exclusively for crochet. 'For some of my crochet pattern stitches, I'm able to get a look similar to knitting', she says. 'It's a matter of thinking differently about where to place the hook while crocheting. You can create the seemingly impossible when you keep looking at things in different ways'. Garments and baby items are her design favourites, but she has found herself increasingly intrigued by crochet stitches. She enjoys collecting and creating new ones as evidenced in her ongoing stitch dictionaries published by Leisure Arts. Living in the Pacific Northwest amid an abundance of nature, four seasons, many outdoor activities and diverse cultural exposure, Darla finds inspiration all around her every day.
