Very nice job! It's easy to see you are a man of many talents..to be able to put all of your talents to work, and put together a very sharp set of clothes, is impressive. Thank you for sharing with us!

Those hose are beautiful. Any chance there's a link to the pattern?
Thank you.
No. It's something I made up to suit my friend... it's actually too overly complicated and I would thin the design out a bit next time, although they do look great on IMHO.
I have some pix of them in process and swatches - both the cuff and leg, if you'd like a better look at what's going on - I could send you separately. The cuff pattern (Ribbed Slanting Cable) I got out of a book of old kilt hose cuff patterns specifically.... "Designs for Knitting Kilt Hose & Knickerbocker Stockings" (collected) by Veronica Gainford.
And here are a couple pix of the 99% finished sporran. Still needs an antler catch and maybe ribbon binding around the pouch. But, for all intents and purposes it's finished.... glued, re-stitched and other bits and bobs finished.
And yes, I will put the whole thing on and model it for you all soon,... just need to get someone else to take it is the catch,.. or try the auto-timer shuffle, I guess.
