    Hmmm. It's become cold and rainy down here, too, and I don't start using the heater until December first. Perhaps I should repurpose one or more pairs of kilt hose under my winter socks.

    I can't bring myself to do that with the Lewis hose, though, they're too nice for wear when working out in the mud.

    Tee Hee, the others are cream colored Stillwater hose, and I thought I would never have a use for them again...
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    Waste not, want not, eh? Even white hose has its uses!

    Ya, if I don't fold over the cuff, they cover my knees. It's almost as good as long-handle underwear.

    But without the trapdoor.

    I agree with doubling-up on hose. I've worn plain white cotton/nylon socks under kilt hose before and stayed just as warm as I wanted to be.

    When given a choice, most people will choose.
