Amphora?
Hey gang, my lovely bride (who is the best in the world) is trying to knit me a pair of kilt hose. The instructions she got have the line "Work 24 rounds in the amphora pattern", but no details as to what the heck that is! Any ideas?

Yes, the designer's name for the hose-top pattern was "Amphora."
