Knitting pattern for kilt hose?

**Doomsday** · 26th July 08, 03:01 PM

Does anyone have, or know where I can get, a good knitting pattern, or patterns, for kilt hose?

I have the Folkwear pattern instructions. It's a knee-length argyle with a cuff. I'd be happy to send it to you because I will never need it!

I recently found a really nice and inexpensive book of sock patterns in which there was a beautiful pattern for what they called "knee-high's", it looked exactly like the kilt hose I've been seeing - it had several page of instructions and patterns. I found this book at a Pacific Fabrics store near me. You might check out the sewing/fabric/craft stores in your area.

My wife uses that site extensively. It's like "X Marks" for the knitting community. She loves it.

Use the search feature this discussion has bee held before.

I like to use the sockulator to give the basic size and then use Knitting fool to find a cable pattern.
