Cool!
I may have to try the "pre-literate" stockings sometime - not a re-enactor or anything like that, but I'm fascinated by things from the past.
thanks for this post. i think i finally understand garter stitch now. i always thought it was odd that the stitch called garter ran perpendicular to a ribbed stitch that would be more elastic. garter stitch must have its root in the idea either that its 'lines' mimic a garter, or in the fact that the garter stitch ridges would 'catch' on a garter and help hold the socks up. thanks again for this.
