Thank you, and that too seems like it would look best. I guess the hose would have to be carefully designed to be just long enough to do all of that and still end up at the right place below the knee...
which was... your original point about the hose being too short in the picture. 
* The sett of my tartan measures 5 and 7/8 inches. I wasn't sure what that is in relation to kilt hose cuffs, so I mesured the cuff of my Lewis kilt hose. (The cuff is designed to turn down once.) It happens to be almost exactly that same size. Was a little worried that might be too large just in case I have to go with the cadadh option. *

I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
