"Viking Style" Brouge lacing?

[gsmacleod]

For one thing, quality hose aren't cheap. A neutral makes sense for someone who wants to save a bit of $$$, perhaps.

Agreed on hose not being cheap (however learning to knit is cheap and then you can make a fine pair of hose for the cost of the wool).

For neutral, I'd say that lovat green or blue, oatmeal or bsion would serve the same purpose but be more interesting than white or black.
