They look rather like Stephen's but quite a different yarn of 75% wool 25% polyamide so can be washed in the washing machine. While I was knitting I didn't like them much but now that they're finished I do. David has 11 pairs of hand-knitted socks so we've nearly reached his goal of 12 pairs.
NB: these subsequently shrunk so much they had to be given to Hannah for bedsocks.
