Should you ever want to knit socks, and only want to buy one book on the subject, and are inclined to take my advice, you'll buy Charlene Schurch's "Sensational Knitted Socks." It has directions for every technique you'll ever need, complete sizing for babies to old men, lots of stitch patterns, and complete instructions for four, five, or two circular needles (all valid options for knitting in the round). These are an open-work rib stitch, knit on two circs., with heel flap and wedge toe. The yarn is Cascade Fixation, an elasticized cotton that tries and fails to be more pleasant to work with than your average cotton.

The model on these socks is sensational. I believe she doesn't wear just any old socks and these pink beauties are fit for any princess in her pantheon
