Sock knitting is an obsession for a lot of people. I know it is for me.
For some people, sock designing is the obsession. And one of those people is Hunter Hammersen, author of the remarkable Silk Road Socks, and her latest book, The Knitter’s Curiosity Cabinet.
This new book features 20 patterns inspired by vintage botanical illustrations, and all feature Hunter’s fabulous patterning and attention to detail. There’s a great mix of socks and accessories.
And for today’s giveaway, we’ve got two prizes for obsessed socks knitters:
The Big Prize: a copy of the book + an e-book copy (value: $26.95), and a skein of Rune sock yarn from Barking Dog Yarns to make the Loasa socks (pictured above) from the book (value: $26.95). Total prize value $53.90.
The Excellent Second Prize: a copy of the book + an e-book copy (value: $26.95)
You know how it works: leave a comment on this post between now and midnight eastern time, September 5th. Two comments will be chosen at random to answer a skill testing question, one for each prize. If the commenters answer correctly they will win the prize. If you have already won a prize from us in the past year, please do give other knitters a chance.
Thanks to Hunter and Suzanne at Barking Dog Yarns!
Those socks look incredible 🙂
I love the yellow socks on the cover! Definitely getting this book and knitting those up.
These patterns are so beautiful, and I have so much sock yarn in need of projects! Perfect match.
I love socks and love those designs!
Ooooh, what gorgeous socks!
Hunter’s patterns are amazing! Count me in!
i am so ready to get out of my beginner sock knitting rut! this looks like a great way to do it.
I had already faved a lot of these patterns on Ravelry, but had not gotten around to actually knitting any. Maybe now?
I love the socks pictured! I hope I get lucky and am chosen. 🙂 I sure would be grateful.
Just looking at the pictures are inspiring! I am going to go directly to ravelry to see the rest!!
Love the 2 sock patterns that you have displayed.
Socks are my favorite thing to knit!
As a novice sock knitter, I can say these designs are inspirational!
I would love to win this prize. I knit but haven’t tried socks yet. I hope the skill testing question isn’t a hard sock knitting related question. lol
What beautiful patterns. When I was a noobie, I bought tons of sock yarn (who can resist the self striping and wild colors) Now I’m on a mission to use up all that sock yarn.
Thanks for allowing me to enter the contest. Good luck to everyone.

I’m thinking the Loasa socks are the perfect Christmas present for my sister! The Silk Road socks would be perfect for me. 😀
I really like the second pair you showed in your post. Very pretty.
This book is going on my bithday wish list!!! Fantastic designs!!!
I am a sock knitter who swore when first learning how to knit that I would NEVER knit socks. Now I have more hand knit socks than store bought ones, and I live in the south!
I would love to have a new book to draw my sock knitting from.
I haven’t made a pair of socks in quite a while but I can make an exception for these
Those socks look like spa days for my feet. Do you know what kind of yarn is in the photos?
Sock knitting is the best. Someday I wanna replace all my store bought socks with hand-knit ones!:D
LOOOOOOOOVE this!!! and I’m on a serious sock kick right now. ::fingers crossed::
I love these socks. i have only been knitting socks for 6 months and I love it. Nothing is more wonderful than a pair of handknit socks!
I have wanted to knit socks for a long time. This book would definitely get me started.
Started knitting my first pair this week and I love it! I’ll definitely look for this book!
These are beautiful! I’m ready for a challenging pattern to cozy up with this fall!
Stunning. Just stunning.

Oh man, I’ve been meaning to pick up that book since it was in pre-orders – I would LOVE to win a copy!

Sock knitting is an obsession for me. My handbag is usually carrying a WIP sock or two.
I heard an interview with Hunter about her new book. I would love a chance to own this book.
These look amazing. I don’t always like lace socks (so many of them are too lacy and hole-y for my style), but these look like they’re just my scene!
What lovely socks in the photos! 🙂

Beautiful!
I looove sock yarn and I love socks!

I can’t believe the way I got here. I was on Ravelry joining Hunter’s knitalong on this book (which I don’t own) and flipped over to check Facebook (for no particular reason), and saw the Knitty post about this blog entry. Synchronicity. The rest of you might as well give up now, because I’m obviously meant to win this book. 🙂
Would love this! Always looking for new sock ideas.
Looking forward to studying these patterns in more detail.

I would love to win since I´m new to sock knitting.
Love the plain foot with fancy top. Very neat
Yes, things could well be worse. But when the response to a medical diagnosis is “take a deep breath” this might just keep me breathing. One stitch at a time….one sock at a time. This mantra I know will help keep me on an even keel. I’ll be grateful for every stitch I take, prize or not.
I’ve been yearning for that book! Maybe it’s the photography, but maybe not; I’m a sucker for sock books. So, yeah. If nominated, I will serve.
Sign me up! =D

would love a chance at these. I’m a relative novice with socks, but learning quickly and I love learning new techniques
Yes please!
I’ve been sock obsessed for years. Everyone I know got a pair when during the time my kids were in high school and I spent all my time waiting for them to get out of sports practices!
Beautiful book.
I love wearing hand knit socks and I am always looking for challenging patterns.
These are such stunning socks! I would love to win and try my hands on them, being a somewhat obsessive sock knitter ever since I got started with knitting socks about two years ago. 🙂
What beautiful socks and of course I would love to win. Thank you for a classy giveaway.
I love both pairs but especially the picot edge socks…..so much more fun to knit than ribbing!
I would love the chance to win this lovely book! 🙂
I love knitting socks and I can’t wait to get this book!

What lovely socks, and great prizes. I would be so happy to win either!
Socks are so very satisfying to knit. And you can never have enough sock books, in my opinion. If I had that book, I wouldn’t stop at one, I’d knit them all!
These socks have me antsy to knit them. Gorgeous.
I always have a pair of socks on the needles – easy to grab for travel knitting.
I loved “Silk Road Socks” and I’m hungry for more of her patterns.
You can never have enough socks!
The patterns look beautiful; I’d love to my hand at them.
Obssessed? No. Usually have a pair on the needles? Yes.
I “owe” my mom a pair of socks by Xmas and this could be the perfect pattern source.
Thanks, as always, for all the great giveaways.

Great giveaway!
I love knitting socks! They are such a neat, easy to carry, fun project. I would love to knit several projects from these books.

Just because I knit pairs of socks every 5 days and I don’t even wear hand knit socks myself doesn’t mean I’m obsessed, right?
Beautiful book! My latest obsession is socks. Fingers crossed……
Wow this is an awesome prize.
What beautiful socks. I’m definitely entering this drawing!
Even if I don’t win I think the book is a must-have! Love the yellow socks! Great color and fantastic design! Hand knit socks are the best treat ever,to have or to give.

I’m addicted to knitting socks. I’ve got 5 pair piled up over the summer. They make me feel smug about the upcoming winter. And yes, there are still 3 more pair on the needles…
I love these socks! And I need inspiration to move beyond k1p1 socks. 🙂
I love the comfort of hand-knitted socks, and I always carry a small pouch of sock knitting to all events — movies, ball games, and even a concert of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony!
