best sock book?

I just subscribed to this group. I do knit but mostly I quilt. I am looking for a sock book that teaches knitting on double circular needles (2 at a time).

My sock knitting experience is limited. I started a sock about 3 years ago and when I started to knit on it again, I had totally lost my place. Soooooo, I ripped it out.

I really don't want to fall into the SSS so I though doing both at once would cure me!

I appreciate your recommendations!

I agree with DA, "Knitting Circles Around Socks" will meet your needs. I have it and it will teach you what you want to do.

I do, highly recommend "Sensational Knitted Socks" by Charlene Schurch. She is great and the charts she provides will used by you many times if you knit socks very often. I recommend both if you can.

When I was out on Thursday I bought "Knitting Circles Around Socks....." based on your recommendations. It looks like a wonderful book! I like the tutorial using worsted weight yarn for your first socks. I'm going to give that a try!!!

Thanks all!

I think that Cat Bihordi has one Socks Soar on Two Circulars. Personally, I hate that method. I tried it twice, and it worked, but I felt as though I was working with spiders. But that's just me! It may be fine for you.
