I always knit my socks top down... that's the way I learned. But I've heard so many good things about making your socks from the toe up, that I've always wanted to try it, but I just need an easy explanation of how to do it. This book is it. It's the first time I've actually understood how to do it, and I can't wait to start my first pair. I also like how this book has simple starter (stockinette) socks, so you can "get" the technique without having to worry about lace or cables.
