Blue Spruce Socks
Designed by Rachel Brockman. These socks are warm, cozy, and a joy to knit. If you aren’t a fan of stranded colorwork, don’t fret! The Blue Spruce motif is achieved through slipped stitches. One color is carried at a time and only the stitches requiring the working yarn are knit—the rest are simply slipped purlwise. It requires twice as many rows, but the overall effect is very similar to the appearance of stranded knitting.

Broken Garter Scarf
Designed by Amy Gunderson. The idea of this particular stitch pattern is a concept in the book that is presented in a variety of ways.
