Hi sue I haven't done a Buck's garter, but I did a torchon one last year and made a metre (39ins) of lace. It was only just enough. I think you need at least 2 x the circumference of the thigh concerned! Viv

I have done about 25 inches and am wondering what others who have made bucks point garters would consider a sensible length. I was thinking 30 inches and using ribbon approx 1 inch on one edge and not in the centre.
