    Re: Hose for Isle of Skye kilt

    As so many have already said, wonderful work. I especially like the knotwork pattern of the cuff. I eagerly await the photo of the hose with the kilt to see how the colours work.

    Re: Hose for Isle of Skye kilt

    Steve, this evening, in his Isle of Skye kilt with new hose:



    The lighting is not good, but you can see that the view from a few feet away is more subtle than the close-ups.

    The front of the hose:



    "Seams", back view showing decreases, also showing nosy Lab "Maggie":


    I think these hose will shrink just a bit when I wash them again.

    Re: Hose for Isle of Skye kilt

    As some here have said: I am truly a lucky man. In many ways.

    I wore the outfit in the pix to work today - with a tie and Phantom II tie tac. A regular gor-tex wind-break and Stetson Drifter topped it all off for outside.

    The pix don't do justice. The hose are a work of art, and they are warm and comfy. From now on, the Duty Hose for Isle of Skye are these!
