Many knitters are intimidated by the idea of knitting socks……but they are so much simpler than they look! This is a great first sock pattern; it is made with worsted-weight so it goes quickly and is made in the traditional top-down method on double-pointed needles. Once you are finished with this pair, you will be ready to tackle just about any pair of socks that strike your fancy!
