a challenge from my kiltmaker

[sydnie7]

Very cool garter ties, lots of possibilities along those lines! And the hose are beautiful, holy cow, size 1 DPNs? I am still working on a pair using Size 5s and it is taking for-freaking-ever...

I do wonder if the ties, at that length, swirl and clang about a bit when striding? But overall a very nice outfit with well-chosen accessories.

Yep. Size 1s. Mary at the yarn shop thinks I'm crazy, too.
Yep. 'They do "swirl and clang about," and I kind of like it. They're different, but not too outrageous.
Thanks for the compliments. I'm looking forward to seeing the hose you're finishing.
