This Sudoku Is As Easy As 1,2,3!

* TODAY'S PUZZLE ** This sudoku will teach you a thing or two about the nature of three consecutive digits! It's called Defrag and it's by mormagli. Only three stars for difficulty and it's had many well-deserved recommendations - this is simply lovely. Have a go at the puzzle here: https://sudokupad.app/62jG8GMhp7 Rules: Normal sudoku rules apply. Each purple line contains a set of non-repeating consecutive digits. (These digits can appear in any order). Cells separated by a black dot contain digits where one digit is double the value of the other. ** ISLANDS OF INSIGHT STREAM INCOMING ** We're going to risk streaming this game, which sounds so perfect for the channel.
