That pair is complete, and I've not gotten another offer so I'm making sure I knit some things for me in the meantime.

String your knitting abilities are amazing.

My proto-diced hose are coming along slowly. This is Gainford's large shepherd's plaid, done in acrylic as a learning experience. I will get to some wool Real Soon Now. The biggest problem with knitting kilt hose is that it cuts seriously into kilt making time.

I am not sure if this link will work, this is the pair I am working on now, Knitted in leaf green and cable design for the top.

Nice work all of you...String, Fluter and Calanacrafts! I'm anxious to get back to knitting kilt hose again...I'm supposed to be test knitting a pair for a designer, hopefully it will be soon after the Holidays. I think she's going to publish several of her designs-in a book I hope-so I'll be testing this one pattern for her.

It's great to see what everyone else is working on, I'm just learning knitting so I started small with baby socks and now I'm working on a pair for myself. Then I will tackle a pair for my husband. The book I learned from is "New Pathways for Sock Knitter" by Cat Bordhi. Great book explains everything in great detail, from top down socks to toe up socks. Also gives master sock patterns you can manipulate for different size footsies.

If any of you fine lasses needs someone to knit hose for, I'd be happy to model them on my finely sculpted legs!!

What? No free hose? Oh well, worth a shot.
