    Well, I think you'll be fine with worsted weight in pure wool (squishy) and in Ghillie Brogues as they're not so closed. However it is certainly a very warm Kilthose, that much is certain.

    Wow!

    Okay - those hose are next.

    I'm within hours of completing my first set of hose. I'll post pictures as soon as they are complete (honest!). And then I'm gonna start on the Knitty hose pattern!!! I might add some interest to the leg; maybe a cable or repeat some elements of the cuff pattern... we'll see.

    I'm going to start the brioche beret from Knitty as soon as my current hose are done. Here's the link to the pattern:

    I need an instant-gratification project. I think a beer bottle cozy would be quick and easy...
