    Excellent kilt!

    I also love the sporran, I like the pin closure. I've been thinking of making a sporran and making a closure like that. Does it ever come undone?

    It's a nice closure...never had any problems with it. I'll make some detail pictures of it if you like?

    Wow. Beautiful tartan. It's both muted and colorful at the same time. You do it justice!

    A beautiful tartan, and kilt, Robin. Congratulations.

    As for Grey Hose that is lighter in colour than 'charcoal', take a look at the last pair on this page : http://www.scottishkilts.net/store/c...kilt_hose.html. I now have three pairs of these and they are a very nice mid-grey that go well with my 'Grey Thistle Dubh' kilt (See the images at the foot of page 9 of my Photo Album)

    Thanks for the detail shots, Robin. Looking at it close, it looks like mass and friction would be enough to hold it in. Definitly going to have to make myself one of those!
