In any case, check out your local fabric store and you'll find you can have any colour hose your heart desires for about 10$
Thanks Lethearen.

The olive coloured hose I'm wearing in the second outfit of post #20 were also dyed from white with hunter green dye. But you say the claret actually worked, eh?

At the moment I'm investigating a new source for budget kilt hose, which I don't want to reveal until I've tested them... at $6.68 including shipping, it's worth a try! And a talented friend of mine is planning to hand-knit some hose for me. I look forward to Christmas or my birthday to see what she comes up with
