    David; you are right. I did miss those, however they appear more plum than purple and my Scottish grandmother would have my hide if I paid $58.00 for a pair of socks.

    Does your Scottish grandmother knit, by chance?

    With Christmas coming up, you might consider dropping a few hints...

    She probably also taught you to get the best value for your money, and these hose are the best value for your money. I remember the "sticker shock" on my first pair of store-boughten hose, but now that I've made several pairs of hose and socks and know how much work goes into them I'd gladly pay the price for the hose in the link.
