I think they may be a touch on the long side myself, but considering some of the outfits I've worn in public ...well, I just left it up to the wearer to decide how he wants them.

I did think the shaggier and softer yarns like this one or the 22% wool 50% acrylic and 28% nylon blend called Angel Hair were the most fun to work with and produced the best results (with my meager skills anyway ).
