Lumpy, but reasonably leg-shaped. |
Decided to go ahead and see if I can make hose in time for Kingdom
A&S…if nothing else, they’ll be handwork I can do while I’m there.
|
You can't see the pins I'm very carefully standing on right now. |
Drafting a hose pattern is one of those things that you should probably phone a friend for because
exsanguination from stabbing yourself with pins is a thing trying to pin a seam along the center back of your leg requires impressive contortions.

Note potato-shaped foot pattern, top left piece. |
I
survived the draping process, and discovered that somehow my foot
patterns don’t match at all, while the legs are almost identical. I went
with the better-fitting foot pattern and just discarded the one clearly
draped
on a potato at the end of a long day.

The corrected and smoothed paper pattern. |
So
now I just need to finish stitching the lucet braid to my gown so I can
lace it (important), sew up the hose (also important), and…erm…write the
documentation
because I’m a procrastinating mess.
