    JonathanB I am knitting the hose so I control all factors. basically, foot length + lower leg + calf shaping + fold over + adjustment for loss of length caused by stretch = total length.

    When you purchase hose the amount of fold is normally controlled by the loss of length caused by stretch and the hose being 2-3 fingers below the knee.
