Joined hose 8
8. Joined hose, 15th century
These meet the doublet 10-15 cm below the waist, though the level moved up gradually towards the waist in the late 15th century.
The CF edges are finished by the breech lining and left open (Fig 12), to be covered by the codpiece. The opening can be fastened with a lace close to the waist, using two pairs of eyelets, one on each edge. The codpiece is madę up separately: its lower end is sewn to a gusset at the breech seam and its top is tied to the hose through eyelets on either side of the front opening.
The stirrup feet shown were the commonest form, and the easiest to make.
Joined hose, Fig 8
A wrinkle-free fit is possible but will restrict movement, so most hose are baggy at the seat and knees. Freedom of movement is gained by lengthening rather than widening the legs: notę the horizontal wrinkles in Fig 8. Aim for a good fit round the calf, and looser round the ankle to slip over the heel. Start with an easy-fitting pair: a closer-fitting version can follow with practice. Measurements - Width: round the thigh at the widest point, or half the Seat measurement if this is greater.
Length: from waist to floor at the side, when standing, plus the reąuirements of the chosen foot style.
Prepańng and modelling the toile, Fig 9 - You will need help to model joined hose. Cut two pieces of calico on the bias, as for separate hose. Make them wider than the Thigh measurement at one end, and a little narrower at the other. Mark a Centre linę down each piece on the bias.
Read the caption to Fig 5 for separate hose, then study the pattern for joined hose (Fig 10). See also the Notę on fitted garments, p. 23, which applies here. Although hose don't necessarily fit skin-tight, they follow the body morę closely than modern trousers. Start by fitting the leg, as for separate hose, then fit the breech section as described below. The codpiece and its supporting gusset are drafted separately (Fig 11), not modelled as part of the toile.
Position the centre linę of the toile down the model's leg and pin it to his clothing at waist level. It is best to fit the toile to waist height, then reduce the length of the finał pattern to match the length of the doublet. When each leg is fitted (Fig 5) move up to the crotch or breech section. The wearer may prefer to handle the scissors himself, with the assistant to pin the Back extension.
Two points are important for the fit of the breech.
• The toile must fit well up to the groin at the inside thigh, with extra length for freedom of movement.
• The edge of the breech cut-out must be long enough to allow sitting down or stooping in comfort: notę its shape in Fig 10.
For adjusting the toile and drawing the working pattern see Fig 10.
