Great review thank you. I’m not the world’s greatest sock knitter. I usually run out of enthusiasm after the first one 😂 Any tips?

I love this review! I have the book and I love it also. I also work at my LYS and we sell this book so this has helped me to inform the customer because of the fact that I haven’t finished reading it.

Thank you for introducing the Hopelessly Devoted cardigan! I've been loving so many of Lily Kate's designs!

I know, its realy not often mentioned, but especially for purling: the purl stitch in portuguese style is very easy. If you have a project thats is just ourling a lot, it may be easier to learn this. (i am just knitting in portuguese style, because my mum tought me this, when i was a child) i love it, purling and knitting is easy. Maybe give it a try

On how much did you put in on the Spincyclre? Like 400? Or 600? And do you put in a washing bag?

Funny that you mention Custom Socks Knit to Fit Your Feet, as I already own this one! In your opinion, is it worth having both books, from a technical construction and tips and tricks perspective? I am a fan of Summer Lee and watch her podcast, however I do prefer toe-up construction which is why I've been hesitant to get her book. But it is visually stunning with great photos, so I am tempted! I am also curious what additional insight she has regarding colorwork socks, as I've had several false starts getting into it (due to gauge/tension issues).

Loved the review👌 thank you! I was curious and found her patterns on Ravelry as well, will def knit some! She does seem to be a sock guru ❤

I appreciate your review. You are informative, as always. Keep up the great work.😊

You: I knitted this in a broken rib Me, a dummy: oh shit you broke your rib??

As someone who overthinks which yarn to use for my projects, this is so incredibly helpful. Thank you for all this info!

even though it’s not a how to knit book would have liked to have a brief tutorial of magic loop, or how to knit two at a time. as a new sock knitter sometimes i need to reference techniques to start off as i forget things

Totally agree with your review. I was a "little" disappointed in the book since I found the socks to be basic and I've been knitting socks for 5 years. But since I bought the book as an ebook with my Amazon "reward" money, I consider it a freebie. But I am happy that the book covers afterthought heels for example. I just recently used my "reward money" to buy Charlotte Stone's colorwork sock book. You might want to check it out.

Great review. I am an experienced knitter. I purchased the book and am a little disappointed that much of the book is basic. I will try some of the more advanced patterns and find her color choices so inspiring.

Congrats on the new house! House with a garden is such a commitment 😅. Can't wait to see how you organize your craft room. I'm expecting quite some cool ideas to copy😁

I’ve been debating about purchasing this book because I usually use digital patterns, but I like Summer Lee”s sock patterns a lot and want to improve my sock knitting. Your review really helped me understand exactly what I might get out of purchasing this book. Most useful of all, you helped me to learn that I am the target audience for this book based on some of the tips and tutorials it contains. Thanks for the overview and review.

There are these silicon band tubes to put on needle tip and transfer easy. I never did a provisional cast on yet, bu it looks like this type of povksional cast on would have ninda worked with that? So that the transfer to the needle would be much easier?

Love the review. I actually got this book and LOVE it. I am knitting the Basic B socks right now and finished the Breton stripe ribbed socks a few weeks ago. She is a great sock designer and very detailed with her instructions. Makes sock knitting fun.

I did the cumulus tee in tynn line by sandnes garn and it works very well. I had issues with the slip on metal needles, and changes to wooden needles. After a progress of like 10 cm i could change too metal again (my metal needles are more pointy what was easier for the increases). Worked well with the yarn

Wonderful reviews of all these yarns! Have you or can you do this type of review with other yarns?

I have this book, love it! I bought it not only for it's content but also to support Summer Lee who is one cool chick. I am looking forward to knitting some of the patterns and your review is spot on!

Very good review and much in the spirit of the season, there are so many socks make alongs during summer: Knitty Natty -Sock week, the Crazy Sock Lady ~ Summer Sock Camp, Taylor from Wool Needles Hands have one I don't remembered the name, Crochet Cakes ~Enemies To Lovers, and these are only I know for, who knows how many more are out there. A lots of places where this book will be handy.

Excellent, clear and thorough review…… as always!!

Such a great review!

I have this book and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. I've made several of the patterns so far. I always use the heel flap/gusset but I'm getting out of my comfort zone and learning new heels. Great review. This book is worth evert penny.

As a fellow left handed knitter I would like to know how you find the instructions? Are they easy enough to convert without charts?

Great review! I have knitted socks for years and with your detail - I am ready to purchase for a gift.

Love this book review, and all of your podcasts.

Thanks for this great review of this book😊

I’d love to see a book review for Sari Nordlund’s new book Softly Timeless Knits!

I love your review as it was very thorough. I own this book and feel it is a great addition to my library. I am in the expanding skill group of people. Very happy with my purchase. ❤

I bought this book because I was excited about trying different heels, but I was super disappointed because all of the patterns in the latter part of the book are cuff down with either after thought heels or heel flap and gusset, so the patterns don't have a lot of variety in the construction. I'm using the book for inspiration and using some of the stitch patterns to make my own modified versions of the socks since I prefer a toe up sock or I occasionally do cuff down with a shadow wrap heel.

also, um, if you know the weight of the yarn and the yarn name, you know the length! you just do this formula (the weight you have left in grams over the original ball weight), * the full yardage of the full skein. viola

Thank you for such a thorough review of this book.

thank you for making this review i have been looking for an indepth review for my own decision making!

This book is fantastic. Worth every penny!😊

Such a pretty book

Amy, you are so good at book reviews! I'm not even a sock knitter, but you kept me interested. Love the colors and photography in the book.

Thanks so much for all the tips and useful information. As always your podcast is one of my favorites 💙🩵🧦

I love your lip colour in this video!

I also bought the book and I do agree with your review. I has inspired me to try new patterns and heels. I was able to buy the spiral version of the book, which is really great as the open book lies flat!

Tuned in after a while of being away from social media - and listening to the podcast & knitting made me super happy!

Oh my goodness, I'm so happy that you and your husband have bought your first home! Congrats! 👏🏻💐🎉 On the Kuutar wrap, I actually like the placement of your belt better, but that's just personal pref, no dumps on Sari's beautiful pattern! 🫶🏻❤️ I love MFT designs! The Tee No. 1 reminds me of the Lane Loop Tee ✨️ That Chrysler top looks cool, I may check that out! I hope your trip to Flock is fun and safe, and that you come upon some fantastic yarns, meet great people and enjoy yourself! I have been enjoying Summer where I live! I've planted my first flower bed and have placed some perennials sporadically around the yard, and my first daisy bush is beginning to BLOOM! Daisies are my favorite flower, so I am excited to see how big they get! 🌼

You’re my comfort creator ☺️

Awesome video the avid hat knitter. Personally I think the Manhattan Hat looks best on you :) Although you don't prefer the ribbed, they do look nice on you.

Ne, this was super helpful but, next time, can you specifically address the care of these yarns? Particularly the spring/summer yarns. Can you throw them into the machine to wash and dry? Just machine wash and block? That would really help.

Hi Amy, this will be my knitting right now I have the Coboo in white. White is my favorite of all colors. I like the pale pink that you used. I love all of the knit’s for summer. I am one for layering with a cardigan and I think it’s perfect. I love Summer knits to wear year around with cardigan. I agree with you on what you’ve learned about the heavy cotton going to the fingering weight silk for sure. Thank you, Amy. I always watch you.

I am knitting using kfo pure silk in putty for the peacock tee it's held double

It is a beautiful pattern Was there any way to skip the last lace/leaf motif? It looks like that would have brought that underarm closer to where it needed to be Not sure if that would have been a difficult modification

I realy wonder, that your gauge matched. I knitted the cinema sweater with a superwashed 100% merino yarn and it grew SO much, that i had to undo the whole sweater. After that i watched a couple of videos abaout gauge swatch and every single one told to do are bigger gauge swatch to REALY see, if the gauge matches. NOW i know, that superwash in general grows a lot, rhe label said 100% SW Merino, so... disnt realize at first. However, im so glad that yours turned out that beautifully and you and your sister, you both are so adorable!

My couch looks worse than that 😂 i have a purse-Like thing with all the stuff in it, that i could need. My husband hates it 😂😂
