For me to knit that many socks in one month I would have had to do nothing but knit socks, no sleeping, eating, cleaning, no nappy changing, no cooking nowt!! Laughing Mogie, I bow down to your super-speedy sock knitting self! Laughing

Yes, that's it - the socks were what was left from the Lacy ribbon scarf I knitted.
