the sock knititng kit giveawayHello, freebie fans, and welcome to the first giveaway of the Craft Gossip Olympic Giveaway! I thought I’d start things off with something really fun that I know, sadly, I am never going to use, so it needs to get in the hands of someone who will.

This is The Sock Knitting Kit from Chronicle Books. (That link is to the publisher’s website.)

The kit includes:

  • a 64-page book with sock knitting tips, techniques and patterns for six socks
  • a skein of yarn that I think is supposed to be enough to knit the socks pictured on the cover (though there is only one color, a kind of greenish blue)
  • 5 steel double-pointed needles, which logic dictates should be size 3 US (3.25 mm)
  • all in a slightly smooshed but still useable cardboard box with a cute ribbon handle


If my sample of the kit weren’t mashed up, this would be a great gift. Instead, let it be a great gift for yourself, especially if you don’t know how to knit socks yet!

To enter, leave a comment on this post. Tell me about your sock knitting experience, if you have any, or why you want to learn, if you don’t. This giveaway will be open today only and I’ll have another one for you tomorrow! Good luck and enjoy the Games.

    never made socks before but would like to try since I have fibro and most socks are not comfortable.

  2. Beverly on July 27, 2012 12:14 am

    Would love to win this kit.

  3. Kim C. on July 27, 2012 12:31 am

    I would love to have this kit. I have tried to knit socks but to no avail so this may be my salvation and I can finally “get it”. Thanks for offering this wonderful giveaway.

  4. Liz on July 27, 2012 12:37 am

    I would enjoy using this kit

  5. Louise Williams on July 27, 2012 1:06 am

    I would love to learn how to knit socks I think if I was lucky enough to win I would be able to learn . Thanks for the opportunity to enter

  6. Jennifer R. on July 27, 2012 1:27 am

    I’ve attempted socks once only, and I had no success )=
    I would LOVE to win!

  7. Gabriela - Living La Vida Normal on July 27, 2012 1:31 am

    I’ve tried knitting socks, I made one and never made its mate. The heel turn really confused me so I decided I didn’t want to do that again. I would love to learn how to make socks better so I can actually make socks with all that sock yarn that I have. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  8. Hayley on July 27, 2012 2:09 am

    I havnt entered the world of sock knitting yet, but would love to! As it is often cold where I live, I live in socks but would love some big chunky warm ones that I knitted myself!

  9. wendy on July 27, 2012 2:39 am

    I have never knitted a sock, or even a pair of socks. I want to try everything so I thought this was somehting I could try!

  10. Robin D on July 27, 2012 3:09 am

    I have knit baby socks. My one pair of adult socks didn’t fit.

  11. Michaela on July 27, 2012 3:28 am

    I don’t know how to knit at all, but I’ve been wanting to for quite a while and have mostly just been putting it off. So, maybe this will get me started.

  12. Gina Edwards on July 27, 2012 3:36 am

    I would love this! I’ve always wanted to learn how to knit socks.

  13. teresa on July 27, 2012 3:54 am

    everyone I talk to about sock knitting says its soooo easy. I have tried and can’t seem to get around the heel. Maybe an actual kit with intructions would help me make a wearable pair!

  14. Catherine on July 27, 2012 4:13 am

    I always have socks on the go – I would love this kit!

  15. Francine C. on July 27, 2012 4:22 am

    This look to be one lovely giveway. I have to finish my first pair of socks. I still have a lot to learn. I would love to win this kit.

  16. Junglewife on July 27, 2012 4:36 am

    I’ve knit a few pairs of socks. My first pair was a couple of years ago when I took a sock class at my LYS. Since then I’ve done a couple of knit-a-longs including a mystery one. I would love to win this!

  17. Bonnie Ricciardo on July 27, 2012 4:45 am

    I tried knitting socks once also. I only finished one sock and was not very happy with the results.

  18. Jo on July 27, 2012 4:45 am

    I have never knit a thing! I have a dear frind whom I drive crazy once in a while with requests for more socks, but nit would be wonderful if I could learn to make them my self.

  19. Vernell on July 27, 2012 5:06 am

    I have knitted some socks magic loop and knitting from the toe up. This looks like an awesome addition to my knitting stash!

  20. Jill on July 27, 2012 5:08 am

    After my mom passed away, I decided I had to learn how to knit as I love knitted socks. I taught myself and have made several pairs. I would love to win this as I do not have any officials books on socks. Thank you.

  21. Lesley on July 27, 2012 5:24 am

    I’ve just finished knitting (but not totally put together) my first pair of socks. They were fun to knit (they were flat socks) but came out HUGE!!!! This would be a great tool for me to learn lots more about sock knitting.

  22. Andi on July 27, 2012 5:26 am

    So far I’ve knit several socks -maybe 11 or so? Unfortunately, I’ve only made 3 pairs! I think that I’ve got a case of one sockitis. :) but I love knitting them!

  23. Tiffany on July 27, 2012 5:29 am

    Knitting my first pair of socks now! So far so good, except when I had to rip out a few rows because I ended up with an extra stitch. :/

  24. monica owens on July 27, 2012 5:29 am

    It has taken me over a month to get my first pair of socks completed.
    I had to get a lot of help with my pattern as I did not know better
    that it was not for a beginner. I am now hooked but would love to have
    instructions that go from beginner to mire advanced as you go. This kit
    sounds like the perfect idea.

  25. Robin Peoples on July 27, 2012 5:50 am

    Just starting to knit socks with the help of a group which meets at a coffee shop. Kit would be appreciated.

  26. Mari on July 27, 2012 5:55 am

    I’d love this kit. I’ve only ever made one sock, not even a full pair, but I’m determined to make many pairs. I made my sock years ago & bit off more than I could chew (small intarsia design when I had never learned how to change colors). But now I’m signing up for a Craftsy course on sock knitting I think I’ll finally be able to make socks.

  27. MoniQ in WI on July 27, 2012 6:05 am

    After 9 years of knitting, I’ve yet to try socks. I once got up the courage and bought sock yarn–those cure self-stripings!–but still haven’t used it. Why this anxiety over socks? Maybe I need a book….

  28. Katherine on July 27, 2012 6:16 am

    I am just learning to knit, and will be taking a class at our local knitting shop next month. This might be a little advanced for me but it would make a great project for the upcoming winter :)

  29. Annie on July 27, 2012 6:20 am

    I’ve been wanting to try my hand at knitting socks! This would be a great way to get my feet wet. (No pun intended. :D )

  30. Bettina Groh on July 27, 2012 6:21 am

    I knit my first pairs as a Christmas gifts when I was in high school and never made anymore…it’s time to try again! That was 50 years ago BTW!

  31. Michelle on July 27, 2012 6:25 am

    I’ve successfully knitted one pair of socks for my fiance! I would love to knit more!

  32. Debbie on July 27, 2012 6:31 am

    Sounds like fun!

  33. Sylvia Beeson on July 27, 2012 6:31 am

    I’ve bought other sock books, but have been so intimidated that I never got beyond casting on! Sounds like this kit would be perfect for me to really get started!

  34. Maureen on July 27, 2012 6:42 am

    I have never tried socks. Everyone is telling me that I would love it and that you have to try at least once. I know that others love doing socks because it is such a portable project. I know that you can make such unusual socks or ordinary too. This would help.

  35. Jane O'Donnell on July 27, 2012 6:57 am

    I love making socks and wish I was better at it…..

  36. Mel Miller on July 27, 2012 7:11 am

    Socks would be fun to knit!

  37. Cherise on July 27, 2012 7:12 am

    I’ve attempted socks once only, and I had no success. I’ve love to try again…

  38. Margay on July 27, 2012 7:14 am

    I’m relatively new to sock knitting, so I could use all the tips I can get! Would love a chance at winning this kit!

  39. Renee on July 27, 2012 7:16 am

    Hi! A kit to learn to knit socks is brilliant! My Mom knit the most amazing socks for me and my boys when they were very little – a long time ago. I miss those socks so much. They just didn’t keep our feet warm. They warmed my heart. Every time I put them on our feet, I would think of Mom’s care. A kit might be just the ticket to get me to knit socks for everyone I know. Or maybe just me:)

  40. Sue H on July 27, 2012 7:30 am

    I’ve knit three pairs of socks but still have a long way to go to becoming proficient! Would love more information. Thanks for the chance!

  41. Cheryl B. on July 27, 2012 7:33 am

    It’s been years since I’ve made any socks, and was just this past week looking for my patterns to try again.

  42. MelodyJ on July 27, 2012 7:41 am

    I haven’t made any socks. I’m ready for my next knitting challenge.

    melodyj(at)gmail(dot)com

  43. Jill on July 27, 2012 7:50 am

    I just finished my first pair of socks. I made them for myself. There are several mistakes, but I can wear them. Thanks!

  44. Susan Spiers on July 27, 2012 7:55 am

    This sounds like a great kit! My mother taught me to knit, and one of the first items I made were socks-dp needles, good start, have been knitting ever since!

  45. Winnie on July 27, 2012 7:55 am

    I have knit a couple pairs of socks – all worsted weight lounge socks for around the house. I would love the opportunity to knit with sock yarn. This is such a fantastic giveaway.

  46. Amanda on July 27, 2012 8:00 am

    I’ve started and frogged about 5 different sock patterns… So far I’ve never completed a pair of socks. I have not lost hope :)

  47. Nicole on July 27, 2012 8:03 am

    I love comfy socks and so does my husband. He would love it if I made him a pair and that is why I want to learn.

  48. Stephanie E on July 27, 2012 8:05 am

    I just started knitting my first pair of socks last week and the book would be a great help!
    My mom and I prefer socks with wool in them and it is getting harder and harder to find them in a retail store so I decided to try knitting some. Wonderful giveaway, thanks.

  49. Sock Knitting: Starting, Finishing and the Second Sock · Knitting | CraftGossip.com on July 27, 2012 8:20 am

    [...] been so fun seeing all your responses to the sock knitting question! I wanted to respond to some general categories of responses and provide some resources that might [...]

  50. jessicac on July 27, 2012 8:21 am

    I have made 3 pairs of socks.. still haven’t made a perfect fit pair yet, I need to figure out a good fitting pattern!

  51. Britt Saari on July 27, 2012 8:23 am

    Ooh. I’ve never made socks, but the middle of summer seems like the best time to learn – Ill be ready for winter!!!

  52. Jess on July 27, 2012 8:23 am

    I’ve just started knitting and am having fun. I’d love to learn to knit socks. Thanks for the giveaway!

  53. Deb Kegelmeyer on July 27, 2012 8:24 am

    I want to learn to knit socks. I made one pair. They are okay, a little loose and required a lot of frogging. perhaps starting at the beginning would be a better approach :)

  54. Alice on July 27, 2012 8:36 am

    I would love to win this. It would be great to pass the time while I am recovering from chemotreatments!

  55. Sophie on July 27, 2012 8:41 am

    I am new at knitting and would like to learn how to knit socks. I think this kit would be a good way to start!

    By the way, I want to tell you how much I appreciate the work you do on Knitting Craft Gossip. I follow it through my Google Reader and truly enjoy your posts! Thank you!

  56. Andrea on July 27, 2012 8:41 am

    I started knitting socks a few years ago. I have been using the double pointed needle method. I am really interested in learning how to do the magic loop.

  57. Karey on July 27, 2012 8:51 am

    I have knit one sock so far – not a pair, but one sock! I plan on knitting the second one at some point and knitting more, but other projects with closer deadlines came first!

  58. cguard(on rav) on July 27, 2012 8:54 am

    I am sadly suffering from second sock syndrome and could use a kick in the rear or fresh start as socks seems to me the absolute coolest thing one could ever knit!

  59. Rachel on July 27, 2012 8:57 am

    Absolute sock addict. Have knit lots of different kinds, from Fair Isle, to lace, Old World style, to slightly unconventional.

    Would love to win this kit as a way to continue to promote my habit.

    :-)

    Which is socks.

  60. Patricia P. Hall on July 27, 2012 9:08 am

    I challenged myself to learn to knit socks this past year ( I choose something new to learn each year). It took me a whole year to knit my first pair but I LOVE them and have worn them with pride. I am now knitting my second pair and have found they are so easy to carry for traveling this summer. I would love to win this kit so I could learn more about knitting socks. I am looking forward to expanding my horizons!!

  61. tanvel on July 27, 2012 9:19 am

    I had a hard time trying to knit socks with four needles, so I gave up. I still have the project laughing at me in the closet. Maybe I could be inspired by reading a book with so many patterns, would I be able to find one pattern that is not so intimidating or hard and easier to understand? Thanks for the opportunity, you are generous.

  62. Irkalla on July 27, 2012 9:20 am

    Socks are my passion, for the Ravellenics on Ravelry I’m going to attempt to knit 6 pairs at once ^^

    Irkalla on Ravelry.

  63. Kimberly M. on July 27, 2012 9:34 am

    I would love to win this! My mom wants to learn how to knit socks.

  64. rose on July 27, 2012 9:41 am

    I loved my Spider cable socks I knitted but I am guilty of suffering from second sock syndrome lol

  65. Joanna on July 27, 2012 9:44 am

    I would love to win this kit! Thank-you so much for the contest!!
    To answer the question, I have never knit a sock, yet! I have made a pair of socks on the “sock loom”! (My husband gave me that as a present. That was the result of him going into a craft store intending to get me some yarn,but he said he got “lost” when he saw all the different yarns! lol)
    I want to knit a pair of socks, I just have not been brave enough to start! :) Someday I will though!! Right now I am trying to finish a blanket for my bed!
    :) ~Joanna

  66. Angie on July 27, 2012 9:48 am

    I have completed one pair of socks, but I have made many singles. I really want to learn toe-up, and two-at-a-time. Maybe I will have more pairs of socks then.

  67. lynaeve on July 27, 2012 9:57 am

    I would love to win. Thanks for the chance!! I got knitted socks for Christmas last year so I’ve wanted to learn ever since.

  68. Janis Reuter on July 27, 2012 9:59 am

    What fun! Started socks with 2 pairs of yoga socks (no heel, no toe). Ready to move up to the REAL ones now. This kit would be a great start.

  69. vicki on July 27, 2012 10:00 am

    I have huge feet and most socks feel uncomfortable. I would like to learn how to knit socks to make my feet happy.

  70. Julia on July 27, 2012 10:10 am

    I have been trying to make socks, but ended up crocheting them into slippers instead. I would love to have a detailed book to walk me through the right steps.

  71. Cathy on July 27, 2012 10:10 am

    My mother knitted me a pair of soft socks and I have worn them out! I want a new pair! I guess I will have to make them myself but I don’t have a clue on how to make them! This kit would be great for me! Thanks!

  72. Kim Reid on July 27, 2012 10:20 am

    I have attempted without success to start sock knitting and would love to try again! Maybe this kit would inspire me to learn, Thank you :)

  73. Four dogs and one quilter on July 27, 2012 10:32 am

    Would love to have some fun, practical handwork to do during the hot summer months and it would be sweet to have some new socks.

  74. Liz Komeot on July 27, 2012 10:40 am

    There’s simply no greater feeling than putting on a great pair of socks. It’s something that gets me through the day. On a cold night, amid a snowstorm and the shivers, I always reach for soft and comfortable socks as a source of comfort and warmth. I have never knitted socks, but I would LOVE to learn as I finally believe that my skills are up to par. It would be great to make my first pair!

  75. Librada on July 27, 2012 10:44 am

    My friend knits lots of socks and she tried to show me how but it’s hard because she lives 300 miles away. This kit would be great for me to learn.

  76. Claire C on July 27, 2012 10:45 am

    I have knitted quite a few pairs of socks over the years and I really enjoy making them. I have actually though never made myself a pair, why, I just don’t know why. So if I win this kit maybe they will be for me. Thankyou.

  77. CAS49 on July 27, 2012 10:49 am

    I am just starting to learn to knit socks.

  78. Lennette Daniels on July 27, 2012 10:54 am

    I do have sock knitting experience. I have made three socks before. Of course, the problem with this is that none of them match.

  79. Marianna on July 27, 2012 10:54 am

    I just started knitting socks in earnest about 6 months ago, so I would like to have a kit.

    I must confess though, I would use one long circular needle to make both socks at one time. DPNs come in handy, though for small diameter things like baby sweater sleeves and hats.

  80. adrienne in moose jaw on July 27, 2012 11:30 am

    Who wouldn’t want something new “sockish” for the stash (collection?)! Thanks for the great giveaway!

  81. Debbie H on July 27, 2012 11:32 am

    I love knitting socks. I use the magic loop method and usually knit toe up. Thanks for the giveaway!

  82. Barbara on July 27, 2012 11:33 am

    I have no sock knitting experience but it is on my list to try. I had thought to start with double pointed needles first, then maybe venture further.

  83. Zabbers on July 27, 2012 11:48 am

    I have knit several socks but I would love to give this kit to one of the knitters I know who I want to enable to knit socks!

  84. P. A. Manders on July 27, 2012 12:21 pm

    Ode to My Feet–don’t cry out yet! If I win a sock kit I’ll treat you some nice handknit socks!

  85. Heather K on July 27, 2012 12:29 pm

    I have made one pair but wouls love to learn how to knit socks properly.

  86. Anne B. on July 27, 2012 12:34 pm

    I knit my first pair of socks 2 years ago and loved knitting them so much that I declared last year the unofficial “Year of the Sock” and knit up 13 pairs. Socks are my favourite things to knit and definitely my go-to project when I need a quick knit.

  87. Rachel on July 27, 2012 12:34 pm

    I have knit socks before, but like learning how to improve them. Would love this kit to polish my sock knitting skills.

  88. Sarah F. on July 27, 2012 12:35 pm

    I’ve always wanted to learn… and I’ve tried a couple of times, but it didn’t go very well! ;)

  89. Carmen on July 27, 2012 12:42 pm

    This is awesome! I just recently started my first pair of socks. I think this is going to be one of my favorite projects to knit!

  90. Rose on July 27, 2012 12:49 pm

    I would love to learn how to knit socks because I have heard if you wear home-knit socks, you will never want to wear commercial socks again.

    Thank you for the superb giveaway. Go Team USA.

  91. kbsalazar on July 27, 2012 12:56 pm

    I’m a big fan of sock knitting, and have converted dozens of others to the hand-knit sock cult. (There are free patterns for socks on my blog). I beat second sock-itis by knitting them toe-up. That way the boring feet parts are done first, and the fancy tops are like dessert. Happy knitting, K.

  92. Suparna on July 27, 2012 1:04 pm

    When I knit my first pair of socks I followed all the instructions faithfully for a medium sized foot. I did a good job of knitting them too. However, I never measured my foot, which is size 6.5. So the socks are actually way too big. When I wore them I should have realized that I had made a mistake. But I didn’t and made three more pairs. Which are all, of course, way too big for my feet. :-) :-)

    I’m Loves2Dance on Ravelry. :-)

  93. Teresa from Florence, Alabama on July 27, 2012 1:10 pm

    My only experience in sock knitting is knitting 2 Christmas stockings. I want to learn how to knit a pair of socks for myself.

  94. patsy on July 27, 2012 1:38 pm

    I started out making socks for WarM Woolies but now I knit mostly baby socks.

  95. Missy K. on July 27, 2012 2:02 pm

    I love sock knitting. I have knit several pair and have plans for many more.

  96. Indulgence on Ravelry on July 27, 2012 2:04 pm

    I purchased my first skein of Opal sock yarn and the needles to knit a basic sock in 2003. I finished the first, worked about 1/2 of the second… and frogged the whole thing because the second sock was so much smaller than the first (got the hang of it).

    Then I learned 2@aTime/Toe Up… and I made my SIL a great pair of socks… I use the technique for arm warmers, and just did a grafted scarf in lace doing both panels at once.

    I love hand made socks… still haven’t made a pair for myself… winning this would be so cool!

  97. DeeAnn S on July 27, 2012 2:22 pm

    Years ago I tried to knit a pair of socks. And I do mean, TRIED! I haven’t attempted it since but would love to give it a try again. Thanks.

  98. Alex W on July 27, 2012 3:16 pm

    I’ve never tried knitting socks!! I would love to win this kit and get a chance to make some socks. thanks so much! :D

  99. Deborah on July 27, 2012 3:19 pm

    I have no sock knitting experience. But, I would like to learn.

  100. Judianne on July 27, 2012 3:24 pm

    I have longed to master the art of sock knitting, but have always been intimidated by using double-pointed needles and looking at pictures of right-handed instructions. With a 64-page book of instructions and patterns, how could I go wrong?

  101. Mary Anne on July 27, 2012 3:29 pm

    My sock knitting career got derailed many years ago. I was a beginner knitter and thought my husband ‘needed’ a pair of knit-with-love socks for Christmas. The lady at the LYS assured me that I could knit them and that I had LOTS of time. Well, I knitted. And I knitted. And I knitted (til I was cross-eyed). He got one sock for Christmas – after three months of pretty much solid knitting. He got the second sock around the beginning of April. And guess what? They were too small!! I think it would be an interesting experiment to try again.

  102. Beth Walker on July 27, 2012 3:31 pm

    I dont know how to knit socks, but it would be fun to learn because I have large feet and finding cute socks is almost impossible. :)

  103. Jackie on July 27, 2012 3:55 pm

    This is exactly what I need to finally try my hand at socks!!

  104. Candice Klasen on July 27, 2012 4:16 pm

    I knit toe up socks on 2 circs because I had trouble getting top down to fit.

  105. joyce on July 27, 2012 4:17 pm

    I have only tried to make one sock and it came out way too big. I have yet to try socks again, but they are on my bucket list.

  106. Karen Murphy on July 27, 2012 4:41 pm

    I made 1 pair of socks a few years ago during a sock knit along that went very very slowly so that everyone could keep up. It was for people who were new at sock knitting. This looks like a great kit with all the things in it.

  107. Anne Marie on July 27, 2012 4:57 pm

    I’ve knit socks before, but could certainly use some more practice and instruction.

  108. Nancy on July 27, 2012 5:25 pm

    I have never knitted socks before, but would love to learn. I have two kiddos and one on the way and I would love to master sock knitting so I could keep their footsies warm:)

    I would love to learn how to knit socks, so far I have been afraid of trying. Thanks for the chance.

  127. Stephanie on July 29, 2012 11:53 am

    I love knitting socks. They are the perfect portable project and I always keep one-in-progress in my bag for time that would otherwise be wasted (like standing in line at the store, or before a movie starts, etc). I’m always looking for more patterns, and of course can always use another skein of yarn!
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  128. Delores on July 29, 2012 8:34 pm

    I am a novice knitter, but I would love to learn to make socks. I am the type of learner that needs a book to help me along, so it would be fantastic to win.

  129. OlofDrofn on July 30, 2012 9:29 am

    What a great giveaway! Hope to get lucky. You can also bounce over to my blog for a giveaway. I´ve got the perfect project bags for this kit.
