Hello Chrissy- Sweet Tomato Heel Socks can all be knit toe-up or top-down, and I never use DPNs myself. The socks can be knit on 2 circs, 1 long circ, or DPNs, as a knitter wishes. So I think you will find the book to your liking. You may want to join my Ravelry group, “Cat’s Sweet Tomato Heels” where I answer any questions and other knitters talk about their experience knitting the socks in the book.

Hi Cat,

I am really excited about this new (first) Ebook. I am a relatively new knitter, and fell in love with socks!

I hope there are some Toe-ups , because I just have trouble getting into the DPN’s

Thank you for all you do and love the July Blog
