Hi,

I am constantly solving one problem and as a woman I cannot really guess and I 
am afraid to ask the customers...:-) Well, I am making 15th century hose and am 
wondering as where to exactly place the codpiece. The style of the hose is like 
here (the second man from the left):

Sarah Thursfield gives me an idea of shape, but I don't really know where the 
codpiece should begin - there is a gusset between the legs which end up with 
the codpiece. But I can't figure out where exactly that place is - id it in the 
same point that the regular opening on men's hose is? Or lower? Can I calculate 
it somehow (distance from the crotch depth line or something)?

Thanks for help,

Zuzana
