    Hi Rollo,

    I've never heard of a snake garter - a garter snake yes, but not a snake garter. Any chance of a description or if you have one a picture?

    Regards

    Carefully!

    Actually it's what celticwarriorkilts.com calls their round knitted garter ties. See Puffer's pix here

    I've experimented with a spool knitter, tying them about the same way as my flat garters.

    Well - talk about live and learn! I can remember making things like this a million years ago, but never considered it to be of any use up until right now. This is why I love this place.

    Wouldn't you just tie them as you would tie any garter tie?
