Very nice . Thanks
This book shows my current favorite method of knitting socks.
It's brilliant: No dreaded second sock lethargy! No unplanned yarn shortages! You can fit as you knit!
The instructions are very clear, even when my aging brain and arthritic fingers need to go over and over the details of how to "make one left by raising the bar" or "Picking up wraps". I did supplement the instructions with bits from YouTube on how to do the "Surprisingly stretchy cast off" and from a different two at a time sock book for subdividing the yarn skein properly before you start that "Magic Eight cast ON", which is probably the trickiest part of the whole process. Still, this is the one sock book I'll hang on to instead of passing along.… (més)

Love the ability to do Toe Up -so as not to waste yarn or worry about running out of yarn too soon. Also great to avoid the dreaded "Second Sock Syndrome" wherein I get bored before finishing (or even starting) the second sock.
I don't remember where I learned how to subdivide one skein of yarn correctly so as to make the two at a time work well.
This method is far superior to other sock making approaches, at least for me.
