Outstanding Book for Beginners

I found a great book for machine knitting beginners. It is The Machine Knitter's Handbook, an older one by Hazel Pope. I only wish I had it when I first got my machine. It would have saved me a lot of grief. I bought it used on Amazon.com for less than $3.00. Another good one is The Prolific Knitting Machine by Catherine Cartwright-Jones.

Sock project

Here are my latest socks. A very simple pattern, but I really like them. I made them with baby yarn from Hobby Lobby.
