Getting hose the right length

[Spartan Tartan]

Jonathan try this approach with your hose

pull em up as high as they go

turn them down to your chosen distance below the knee

Then pinch around half way down the turn down and pull it upwards

Ta-Dah!, you can then put your flashes/garter ties as you wish

P.S don't go with the logo style hose there tourist style tat imo

I hope this helps

That is exactly how I do it with a very similar style of hose.

rsvpiper's post is exactly what I meant by an "accordion" fold. Thanks for providing pictures to illustrate!

You could always hang off a tree with some weights on your feet, this might stretch your legs for you

I'm likely going to talk me mom into knitting me a pair of buying custom length.
I drug out some I had left over from when I danced (rather briefly
and can't figure out where or why I HAD kilt hose and dance socks NOR why they were SO long seeing as I have itty bitty legs.
I think my mum hoarded some away from the older dancers thinking I'd stick with it but like fiddle lessons you can't make a 6 year old practice.
