The next installment of my Medieval costuming journey are the hose. I figured a small, relatively quick project would be perfect before I jump into making the kirtle (and all of those buttonholes), so I waltzed into my sewing room with the happy overconfidence of someone who underestimates how hard a project will be. Socks are hard. Feet are weird. Medieval hose are rude and full of insults, and I am so thankful Nicole, being the historical shoemaker that she is, saved my butt. This is a classic case of over-thinking a sewing project, and how that causes more problems than anything. So, word of advice to all sewers - beginner to experienced - don't overthink it.
It's possibly hard to hear, but we were (attempting) doing weird medieval hose puppets to @Hildegardvonblingin 's version of "Somebody that I used to Know" featuring Friar Funk Somebody That I Used To Know (Bardcore | M...

As an adult with ADHD this is the perfect representation of my whole life.
Tryna sew here, guys! Can you please not? No? Aight...
"They're just socks." That right there was your mistake. Having knit socks I can attest that any sock pattern is straight out of an evil spellbook.
Stockings are the enemy, the big boss enemy, like Bowser in Super Mario.
Pants? Done and dusted by this time! With a zipper closure!
We used to tell each other scary stories about this future project while doing all sorts of other things in class.
Of course the socks needed to be knitted but, you know, they are still a nightmare.
Hose: hee, hee, hee, ..... summon my dragons......
Nicole: ..... not so fast.
Y’all are amazing and hilarious, what a lovely way to start my Sunday ❤️
I can't stop scolding myself for wasting fabric because the cutting methods are so different.
