Bonnie Tartan also does argyle kilt hose; I don't think they exclusively do dance tartans, but I'm not 100% sure. I've heard of people happy with them.
I've not bought hose from Kathy at Bonnie Toes, but I've communicated with her and know she's a nice lady, and I've heard good things about her work.
Kilkeel is usually the go-to, but I've been hearing about problems with them lately (orders not delivered, orders done incorrectly, customers having to jump through hoops to contact them or have issues resolved), so I'm a bit hesitant to recommend them (unless you perhaps buy from them through a supplier that uses them, as I've seen recommended to do if you want Kilkeel hose-- I assume they deal with stores beyond those that sell Highland dancewear). It's possible Kilkeel's issues are over; it's been a few months since I've heard much about it. But without knowing for sure, I'd advise caution in going that route. (Unfortunately, because a lot of people were very happy with them in the past.)
And then, of course, if you know any ambitious knitters, there are patterns out there as well.
