    Fully fashioned version -- that I'm not sure about, but I'll go ahead and say tentatively yes. Let me know your calf circumference and I'll see what can be done.

    The hose cuffs are sewn onto the socks.

    And the tartan in that last pic is weathered Gunn. Very similar colors to weathered MacLeod hunting, but lacking the yellow.

    I forgot my wife had taken this picture for her knitting group.

    Matt thanks for the answers and the picture of the joining. I am not quite ready to pull the trigger yet, but for the record, just above the ankle bone, 10", around the calf 18".

    This seems to be the most evil addictive plot since Robert Pel sent me leather swatches.

    Good Lord Matt...give a kilt accessories addict a break!!

    Second job...??? Hmmm, that might work...

    Oh dear! Honeycomb cuff hose!
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
