The hose came in today!

I am a cheap fellow using sport socks and hand knit cuffs to approximate kilt hose (along with some wbsocks $10 hose.)

I think I might be addicted. I really like them they aren't as stretchy as the cheaper socks but they have substance to them. (something I only had in my one pair of handknit hose I made)

They are a nice fit and very comfortable. It's still on the cool side up here in Ohio so I can't say as they're better for hot places but they sure seem nice to me. I'll try and get some pics up soon.
