The Doodle Sock Knitting Directory
Book in English · All levels
What if your next socks told the story of your little joys? After the success of The Doodle Knit Directory (in French: Le répertoire des motifs doodles au tricot), Jamie Lomax is back with a directory entirely dedicated to socks, so you can design colourwork pairs that are all your own.
The idea is as simple as it is delightful: choose your base pattern, pick your motifs from 200 charts, choose your colours… and knit. The motifs are grouped into 13 themes: basics and borders, sweet treats, baking, coffee and tea, farmers’ market, movie night, game night, video games, books, pets, gardening, outdoors and pool party. For each theme, three ready-assembled full charts match the socks in the photos, so you can get started straight away.
Two base patterns are included, in sock weight yarn: one toe-up and one top-down, with interchangeable cuffs, heels and toes. All the charts share the same stitch count: they combine freely with each other, and with the patterns and motifs of The Doodle Knit Directory and the Doodle Knitting Card Deck.
The book in detail:
- 200 mix-and-match colourwork charts across 13 themes.
- 2 base sock patterns (toe-up and top-down), with interchangeable cuffs, heels and toes.
