I managed to knit one of these socks in 24hours - as I cast on reading the pattern for 6 ply wool and had to unpick last night.
Audrey just needs buttons - I have them but just need to sew them on
I love the sleeve construction - it really is fantastic and one I am going to use as much as possible from now on

Well done Fee - I have done about 2 rows of a sock. The family have mostly left. We are now relaxing in front of the cricket (with much swearing).
