    Steve's Custom Hose with Scottish Wildcat Kilt

    I finally have some photos of the kilt hose Steve made on the circular sock machine and the my hand-woven Scottish Wildcat kilt. And professional pictures at that!

    Steve made the hose specifically to go with this kilt, and he did a wonderful job.





    Why has it taken so long to get a photo? This kilt was accepted into a fashion show for hand-woven items. I need to keep it in absolutely pristine condition at least until after the show, which will take place in June in Victoria, B.C. (YEA...I get to visit Steve and Bobbie!).

    Now, the fashion show committee just informed me they can't find a model for the kilt and asked if I would model it Does anyone have any advise for runway modeling?

    They look excellent as does the kilt, well done all. I can't give you any pointers on modelling it suffice to say you should be fine if you keep your chin up and let the pleats sway.

    I want to get some professional shots of the Wildcat Tartan myself, these photos show me that I must do them soon, thanks for the inspiration.

    Very nice set of hose and the kilt looks fantastic.

    Modelling??? Don't do what models do, strut like real man who knows all the ladies are watching him. Whatever you do I hope you enjoy the experience.

    Smile and walk with a purpose. Running may cause a trip and then modesty is at risk.
