Peachy's come up with a series of tutorials full of pictures that make it easy for anybody to start a sock -- and best of all, when the series is completely posted, she's putting up a PDF version of the whole thing so you can print it out and keep it next to you. This first in the series is about making top-down socks with DPNs, which can often confuse novice sock knitters.
