And coming in October, Cat Bordhi’s new book, PERSONAL FOOTPRINTS FOR INSOUCIANT SOCK KNITTERS Insouciant: That Cheerful Feeling you Have When Nothing is Troubling You.

Description from the publisher: “Imagine: no arithmetic, and no gauge to try to match, and no fuss-just peaceful knitting. You try on the sock, which allows the actual size and shape of your foot to show you what is needed. Cat’s new method makes sock knitting more portable than ever before, and simple enough to make it possible to knit socks in the busiest meetings and most distracting circumstances. The book includes 25 fresh designs. “
