Book Description
Knitting and haiku, together at last! The soft clacking of needles, the repetitive looping of yarn…you’ve fallen under the spell of knitting. For you, and for knitters the world over, this ancient craft is more than just a hobby, it’s a soothing practice with a rhythm and mystery that echoes its sister in poetry, the haiku. Written for the passionate knitter, Knit One, Haiku Too is a tribute to all there is to love about knitting: the creativity, the meditation, and the contemplation.

Book Description
Open up a world of knitting possibilities with these fun and stylish sock designs using Japanese stitch techniques. In Knitted Socks East and West, author Judy Sumner compares knitting a sock to writing a haiku: both challenge you to create something beautiful and original within a sparse, strict format. In this, her first book, she recounts how she came to study hundreds of exquisite Japanese stitch patters and then apply her new knowledge to the sock designs showcased here. Whether short or long, fine or bulky, simple or complex, each of the 30 designs in Knitted Socks East and West is named after an intriguing aspect of Japanese culture. For example, the leg of the Origami crew socks appears to fold in and out; the Sumo slipper socks are named after the heavy, organic movement of the cables in their thick yarn; and the Ikebana knee socks highlight a textural floral design. Step-by-step text and easy-to-read charts are included for each design, along with illustrated directions for the Japanese stitchwork introduced in the projects.
