Kilt Sock Patterns...Know of any?

Pattern Central

Morning all!

My husband and 2 sons are all in pipebands and I’m looking for kilt sock patterns that are a little more creative than John Anderson’s Kilt hose or popcorn tops…does anyone have a pattern that they can share?

There are two books that I’m looking for …
“Knitting Scottish Kilt Hose and Hiking Socks” by Joanne Gibson Hinmon and
"Designs for Knitting Kilt Hose" by lady Veronica Gainford

Does anyone have copies they can part with?..they are impossible to find!

Thanks!!!

Thanks heaps Marilyn! Just ordered the book…so happy…have been looking for that book for literally years!

Now the boys will soon be sporting new socks…although kilt socks take as long as a sweater to create sometimes!

Happy Knitting!
