Socks have a reputation for being the project that puts people off, heels especially, and turning one corner of fabric into a whole new direction always feels like the moment things could go wrong. No Fear Sock Knitting is written to take that fear out of it, step by step, so you are working from clear instruction rather than hoping you remember a video you watched once.

Written by Denise DeSantis, who knits and teaches as EarthtonesGirl with over 25 years of experience, and built from her YouTube series of the same name. It brings those step by step tutorials together with eight patterns, so you are never just reading about a technique, you are using it straight away.

How it is structured

The book works through the main sock knitting techniques one at a time: knitting in the round on circular or double pointed needles, the difference between toe up and cuff down construction, and heel and toe shaping including the shadow wrap heel, the afterthought heel, and wedge and round toes. Each technique then leads into one of the eight patterns, so you build your skills and finish a real pair as you go.

What is inside

Eight beginner friendly sock patterns. Step by step technique tutorials covering circular and double pointed needles, toe up and cuff down construction, the shadow wrap and afterthought heel, and wedge and round toes.

Perfect for

Knitters who have never knitted a sock and want it explained properly before they start, and anyone who has tried before and got stuck on a heel. It also works as a reference for more experienced sock knitters who want a refresher on a technique or two.

A patient, practical guide that turns socks from the project you avoid into the project you reach for.
