SUPERSTITIONS : Stockings & Garters & Their Powers Of Good & Bad Fortune

LORE & SOURCES
Stockings. socks and pantyhose or tights also have their own brand of ritual.  One should always put the left one on before the right, and in early times housewives would sew a colour stitching into the left one so that the wearer could distinguish between them. 


If a nylon stocking slips from the garter belt three times in a row there is bad luck afoot, while should your pantyhose on the washing line wrap one leg into the other in the wind in an intimate embrace, joy and happiness will be forthcoming. 


A run or hole in both legs will ensure a gift, and if you want to receive vision of your future lover, place your garter belt beneath your pillow at night and you will dream of him.


The precursor to the garter belt was the garter which carried considerable romantic power due to its proximity to the genital area.
