Not quite sure what I'm going to do on the leg part yet, but I found the pattern for the cuff on Ravelry. Thank you so much!!! I think I'll probably do something simple; braiding on the fronts & backs or maybe nothing at all. I was taught to work top down so that the toes/foot can be easily repaired if and when they wore out. I have yet to wear out a pair of my hose, tho. The lighter ones do show a lot of dirt. I'm a piper and have played with a number of different bands and each band has a different color/style hose . . . of course! White hose were very popular about 20 years ago, but thankfully we're off that habit for a while. I only get to use my handmade hose for the holidays & Burns Dinners and they don't see that much traffic. It's a hoot!

Cheers!

Jon
