If you're looking for heavy, I've had luck with soccer socks -- they stay up
better than others, but you have to find ones without logos or stripes on
them.

One more cent on stockings: http://www.sockdreams.com/_shop/edit/index.php
I don't know if they will ship overseas to Bjarne but I have been enjoying
their variety of wool and cotton stockings since I found them about two months
ago. Most are not 100% but some are close, and the size information
No, they were definitely pantyhose--like stockings but attached to,
well, stocking panties. Nobody could tell we weren't bare-legged.

There is substantial mention of a sweating sickness that killed
thousands during Henry VIII's time. What was that? No
Since they have been mentioned, I thought someone might be able to help me.
Target used to carry 100% cotton tights for a reasonable price, but now they
carry microfiber, which my skin won't tolerate. Ditto nylon or mostly nylon
blend. Silk pantyhose were available for a few months, but
Malaria occurs in areas other than tropical ones. In the book, Little House
on the Prairie, the whole family gets malaria and thankfully, a neighbor
drops by and is able to get them medicine. Oklahoma in the 1860-1870's.

Interesting. My daughter mentioned malaria but I told her it
couldn't be that because it's tropical. Cholera was mentioned as
well. I was thinking along the lines of the horrible influenza in
the U.S. in 19...teens that killed so many. Wasn't it called the

Hi all,
Having just watched Amazing Grace for the fourth or fifth time, I got
it for Christmas and I love the story, I was wondering how correct
they were with the costuming. My focus is much earlier.
Particularly the wife of Wilburforce's cousin at breakfast near the
end of the film, and
No-one's done a 1918 costume with a flu mask. There was a plague
doctor from Venice, guessing 16th-17th century, at Costume-Con
12. Photo here:
