Book Description
Why knit one sock and then start all over again to make a match? Instead, knit two socks at the same time on two circular needles! With this creative approach, you can slip a sock on each foot as soon as you bind off. *Get off to a great start with one basic sock pattern; then experiment with seven more designs *Make cuffs, feet, and toes match exactly from sock to sock; no more measuring as you go *Discover how easy it is to convert any sock pattern for double-pointed needles to this ingenious method

 Fun new way to knit socks August 14, 2008
The book has clear, easy directions that I was able to follow the first attempt, except for some confusion as I entered the gusset stitches for the heel. I ended up with the yarn access on the opposite side of the socks and had to retry. This was remedied after two tries and I honestly don't know if my misreading or the book caused the problem. I will use this method, I love it, for two reasons. First, it assures both socks will be exactly the same size. Secondly, I love to knit socks while traveling, but have a tendency to drop the loose needle, which leads to awkward times in an airplane or car as I try to find the needle on the floor. This technique will save that embarrassment--THANK YOU
 Going around in circles July 19, 2008
I love knitting socks and wanted to learn a way to create two at a time. When I heard about this book I decided to buy it and try it. After a few false starts I have finally grasped the concept and I actually like it. It just takes a little brain power and not being too distracted when you knit in this style. Not for the faint of heart knitter but for those who like a challenge I think you might find it interesting. Nothing hurts a failure but a try.

The how-to photos are so detailed and clear that I was able to just sit down, read along and within half an hour was knitting madly away. It's explained so well and the patterns are terrific!

I decided to order this book to try the knitting two socks at a time method. Wow! What fun! I am about half-way through my second pair. I used the directions and adapted a pattern using double-pointed needles and the first pair fits perfectly! I love that I am able to try on the socks as I knit them - impossible to do with double pointed needles.
Very easy and fun to do! May 18, 2008
