Hey Joe, PM sent.

About the bag hose, let me see if I have my terminology correct.
What I'm talking about making are knee-high socks made from woolen "tartan" cloth
Am I correct in calling them "hose", or does that refer to the footless socks I see sometimes???

You guys have certainly given me some good ideas to start with!
When I start sewing them, I'll likely have some more questions, but that's later.

take care
