Newbie do I have it on right?

If the off white hose are wool, then try using coffee as a dye and turn them into usefull pairs of hose eg



Pair on the left are off white as purchased, centre is using regular coffee and right side is using a dark roast

I received 3 pair of white hose, one does not look to be wool. The others maybe, one is McRitchie of Edinburgh and marked 80% wool 20% nylon, the last one I do not know how much is wool. I had thought about trying to dye them, I suppose I am not out much.

I would probably give the coffee a try. If you look carefully at pictures of both Hamish and Matt Newsome you will see that both can get a lot of mileage out of "natural brown" hose.

At 80% wool it is worth a try I think.
