Oh wow, they are beautiful!

I thought I recognised the yarn, it is a particularly striking colour-way and catches my eye each time I see it knitted up.

Thankyou very much Embarassed

Actually, my feet aren't that small, so i don't know why i said that, i think i meant small cuffs Confused
I'm a 6½, with wide feet and a slightly chunky ankle but i only do a small cuff because i hate wearing socks up round my calves puke_r
