    Knitting Hose

    I work as a evening clerk in a small store and sometimes it gets a litle slow. I asked the boss lady if see would allow me to bring aittle hand work to fill in the down time. She agreed and asked what I had in mind. I want to learn to knit kilt Hose, sure as long as she could see how I got along with it. The photo is the first pair I was able to complet. Sense then I have managed to make a few more pairs. Just a post to let anyone who may have an interest, it can be done.

    Love cables. These have a good "robust" feel. Keep up the good work.

    Great job Madpiper; I really like that pattern (amazing how you can knit a pattern like that).

    When I first saw the picture, I thought it was the logo for "X Marks the Sock"!
