* Anna Zilboorg - Socks For Sandals And Clogs
Socks for Sandals and clogs presents a collection of socks designed to
be seen. The unique feature of these variously patterned socks is
emphasis on heels which show prominently in clogs and sandals.
Socks for Sandals and Clogs first appeared as a poster, a sock art to
be hung on a wall. A book of instructions accompanied the poster for
those wishing to knit the socks for themselves.
This new editions brings the poster socks and Anna's instructions and
techniques together in a single book - and more. The new Socks for
Sandals and clogs includes free-sole socks. Free-sole socks are made
with a new technique Anna conceived for making socks with readily
changeable soles. A free-sole sock can be knitted with an upper sock
of fine yarn and a sole of more durable yarn. When the soles wear out,
they can easily be detached and replaced using the free-sole construction."

photographs, charts, a section on translating traditional patterns to the two-
circular method, and abundant tips and tricks have been put together with great

* Cat Bordhi - A Second Treasury Of Magical Knitting
Readers of the first book in this two-volume series (A Treasury of Magical Knitting)
have fallen in love with the new world of Magical Knitting, a dimension so simple yet
so captivating that one could spend a year exploring the huge variety of designs
which Cat offers. Beginning with Cat's unique Moebius Cast-On, which is so easy that
she usually demonstrates it in workshops behind her back while twirling slowly around
on one foot, the reader first learns to knit a Moebius band, or scarf. This is
the magic key that opens the way to all the other designs. The Second Treasury
includes felted baskets (with no inside or outside!), felted fringed bowls, felted
and unfelted sling bags, six different felted cat beds (one with paws and a tail!),
and the trifold designs, including a knitter's bowl with pockets for tools and a place
to keep working yarn away from playful felines. The Felted Needle Cozies, colorful,
highly textured sheaths to hold straight needles, and the felted wallets are both
excellent patterns for beginners and first-time felters. The book includes detailed
information on felting, designing, and yarn substitutions.
* Cat Bordhi - A Treasury Of Magical Knitting

Wraps... graceful headwear, like the Beaded Tresses Hat... felted footwear both
practical and functional, like Sophie.s Mermaid Feet ... the Lost Trail Cape with its
four-way convertible collar ... and the Seven Socklings Necklace. Cat, who is known for
her clear and comprehensive instructions both as a workshop teacher and as the author
of the best-selling Socks Soar on Two Circular Needles, has taken outdone herself in
this full-color, 112 page coffee table quality book. Instructions for the simple
technique are illustrated with close-up photos showing every move, almost like
a slow motion movie, accompanied by clear descriptions so that learners of all kinds

Knitting socks from the toe up has a few advantages: you can try on the sock
as you knit, and you can adjust the height of the cuff to the amount of yarn
you have. Johnson provides five different techniques for starting a sock with
the toe; three different heel techniques; several cast-off options; as well
as instruction on knitting using double-pointed needles, two circular needles,
or one long circular needle. The ballerina photos show off each sock pattern
from multiple angles. The three basic sock patterns allow knitters to
experiment with their own creations. Solid or heather-colored yarns are
recommended to best display the lacework or textured design (no color-work
patterns are included). Half of the socks are lace patterns, and all but three
use fingerling weight yarn. Socks are a popular knitting project because of
their size, portability, and variety; they can be as simple or as complex as
you like. This attractive collection of 23 sock patterns ranges from very basic
to more challenging designs; both first time and advanced knitters will find
projects here
