She gives the shoe size that the pattern will fit, and there is a range of sizes. There are a couple of baby socks, but none for growing children. The ones originally intended for children she has rewritten to fit women.All patterns are for fingering weight yarn, which is fine with me. They are reinterpretations of very old patterns. Nancy Bush has done a very good job of writing patterns in a format for modern knitters. The ones I've knitted have worked out well, with no corrections needed. All socks are top-down, which was how they were originally written. That allowed them to be re-footed as they wore out.Most patterns also use either size 0 or 1 needles (except for a pair of bed socks, which are knitted more loosely on larger needles). She believes modern knitters would rather not use the very fine needles commonly used 100 years ago. Personally, I find fingering weight plus size 1 needles yields a flimsy sock, but I have to admit most books now use that size or larger.The looks of the patterns are creative. I've made a couple of them, and I want to tackle another 2 or 3, but I will have to adjust stitch count for my preferred needles size 000.The cover is firm. The inside is spiral, so the pages lay flat when open and are easy to work from.This is not a book for beginning knitters, or even for beginning sock knitters, but if you have made at least one pair and understand the techniques, this is a great addition to your pattern library. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ so I cannot recommend this book highly enough *by B***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2015* Nancy Bush's "Knitting Vintage Socks" is a treasure trove of information on sock construction and patterns, as well as an interesting read. There's a little bit of history or trivia about each sock, and its involvement in the original pattern book Nancy sources from, which adds a little extra to the mix. Several historically accurate toes & heels are in the book, & Nancy lets you know how they did it traditionally, and how she's modified it for today's knitters. I'm a biased history hobbiest, so I cannot recommend this book highly enough! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A purchase that you will use for years. *by L***A on Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2017* The only reference you will ever need to knit a sock. The author begins with an overview of the different methods for turning heels and shaping toes - with clear easy to follow instructions. And the patterns include a range of styles and difficulties. I bought this for a friend - my copy is now over 10 yrs old and I am still using it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/75065011-knitting-vintage-socks](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/75065011-knitting-vintage-socks) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
