Socks of Iceland – Galt House of Yarn

Reinventing the tradition of socks in Iceland.

With the book Socks of Iceland, Hélène Magnússon is reinventing the tradition of socks in Iceland.

Taking inspiration from old Icelandic socks, historical patterns, but also traditional Icelandic mittens, the book contains 17 socks patterns with a definite Icelandic flair.

The socks involve all sorts of techniques and constructions that will ravish beginners and more advanced knitters alike. The book also draws a complete history of sock knitting in Iceland.
