    And split diamonds, no less! Those are rockin' hose (nice looking kilt, too).

    Usually an argyle or tartan pattern is knitted flat and seamed up the back. Sometimes the leg is done flat, and then the foot in the round, to avoid having a seam in the sole of the stocking. However, it can be done in the round.

    I aspire to learn this, but have only reached the 2 color simulation of dicing (using two strands of yarn).
