This puts the raw/top edge of the hose on the inside of the fold next to the garter, not on the outside at the top, as I think I understand from Hamish's description.

Maybe I misunderstood Hamish, but what I think I understood him to describe would put the wrong side of the hose on the outside. All of the hose that we have are meant to be rolled at the top, so the inside of the top of the hose is actually the "right" side.

At 6'4", if I ever find hose that come up my thigh I will worry. Maybe I can use one of those giant gag stockings from Christmas.
