Those are really nice hose. I'd like to know where you got the yarn. It looks really smooth.

This might get me kicked out of the club, but I prefer the hose undyed. I think the natural color shows off the cabling better. However, the color looks good, too.

Is this a self-contrived pattern, or did you use bits and pieces of other patterns?
I'm assuming you used size 1 or 2 (US) needles. Have you tried the square needles from Kollage? I prefer them to the round ones; somehow they just feel better in my hands.

I hope you get lost of compliments on those hose. They're beyond any that I've made.
