The juniper grove socks were designed with beginner sock knitters in mind. With illustrations along the way to hopefully make knitting your first pair of socks less intimidating and easier to work. The stitches are fully charted so you can follow the charts instead of the written instructions for the leg and foot sections. These socks are easy to work and done from the cuff down using magic loop. There are some video tutorials included as well for the german twisted cast on, joining in the round invisibly with magic loop, knitting in magic loop and the kitchener stitch.

MATERIALS
YARN - Fingering weight approx:
