Another Kilt hose pattern

There is a new kilt hose knitting pattern out there. It looks quite nice, and I like the detail where there is tighter ribbing just below the knee to keep them up.

That's a nice looking pattern. I'll have to share this with my wife. She's been getting a lot of her patterns from Designs for Knitting Kilt Hose & Knickerbocker Stockings, by Veronica Gainford.

Geesh, I already have a problem keeping my hose at the right height but now I have to keep the 'seams' straight in the back! I do like them though.

What size yarn would you use?

So, you taking orders? I'd like a pair for very long feet in that same brown color in the photo.

Can I get 'em before Xmas?

well, the yarn calls for a worsted weight.
and no I'm not taking orders, especially not Christmas orders. 1. that is a free pattern that is copywrite protected, I can't make money off of it legally, and 2. I don't knit that fast.
