Too bad about the yarn, but the socks turned out lovely.

Fab socks ! As ever.
Do you remember, in the dim and distant past, when I tweaked your interest in sock knitting ? Those days of yore, before we blogged !

Lovely socks Polly. You are whizzing through the socks. A little bird told me that you'd finished another sock last Saturday too!
Is this different from the usual trekking? I haven't tried it yet.

Five days for a pair of socks - that's incredible! They look lovely, even if the yarn wasn't the best for you.
