 The second section, called Fancy Socks, includes 8 patterns designed to show off your knitting prowess. These socks, due to their complexity, are sized to fit a Women's M (7-1/2" to 8-1/2" foot circumference). If needed, there is a section on resizing in Chapter 1 of the book. 
worksheets
One of the unique features of Toe-Up! involves the use of worksheets to custom-fit your toe-up socks using your favorite toes and heels. Complete worksheets are included in the book, but you can also download a set of blank worksheets to use with the book. You will need your book to fill them out until you get the hang of the formulas. |
