Kneeband

Can the calmest face, can the best-plaited lawn-sleeves, can the highest-drawn pink stockings, can the comeliest thigh-cases, the most nicely puckered at the kneeband, or can the most virginal apron, do away with or cover this ?

Pass the hook & tape through it, & down between the breeches & drawers, & fix the hook on the edge of your kneeband, an inch from the kneebuckle.

The kneeband started to be buckled around 1735; previous to this the kneeband was buttoned.
