I knit these using an Opal yarn, one on a hank. Sorry can't recall what it was and one of the dogs ate the label.I knit them both together on a 2mm HiyaHiya circular needle. At least I did until well into the leg and I got fed up and did them singly after that.
To be fair, whilst I think it took longer to do, I was knitting other things too and also using garter stitch blocks and I always find garter stitch to be slower as it it not so easy to get the needle tip in the stitch and I have to look whereas I do not have to look when doing K and P.
I used a variation of my Andersson Heel.

Colin, beautiful socks, and I want my socks to look as good as yours. Can you publish your Anderson Heel recipe again?
I dunno - what sort of excuse is 'the dog ate the label?'
Lovely socks...
So very gorgeous! I love autumn colors and always find myself leaning that way when petting yarn.
Beautiful! But not with those pants. :) I'm inspired to try this myself now.

Once again, they're beautiful, and once again, what an aptly chosen name for them.
Also, congratulations on your dogs for being chosen as hearing dogs for the deaf.
