Re: Attaching Cuffs to Tall Socks?
Duh - the dim light flickers brighter - thanks
You can tell I have never knitted. Crochet yes.
Trying to fit what you guys were saying to a sewing machine - LOL Mind lock!
It would be nice to dress up my cushioned cotton compression ribbed over the calf socks with a cuff so they wouldnt appear so "orthotic".

If the cuff is a larger diameter than the sock body, the machine-sewn seam will generally "roll" toward your leg and often hide the machine stitching when worn--even if it's visible while the hose are lying flat in your wardrobe drawer!
