    Thanks a million, Rocky and Staff!

    Dear Rocky and Staff,

    The Tartan Green hose and interlaced kilt pin arrived today. They are absolutely what I wanted, more than well worth the wait – which turned out to be not as long as it might have been – and will make a real improvement in my Highland wardrobe.

    Quality, speed, price, service… Ron (Riverkilt) is wrong; you can have it all!

    I’ll post pictures online next time I kilt up – could be a couple of weeks… or not.

    Thanks a million,

    I've got the same kilt pin, Father Bill - it's a nice design and gets noticed.

ID:	18753 Okay... here are the pictures. I love the simplicity and clarity of free-flow shape in the pin and the hose are by far my favourite single-colour ones by far for the sculpture of the knit.

    A pleasant and unexpected bonus with the hose is that indeed, as Rocky advertises, they are hand-knit in Scotland... but I didn't think they would come with the name and signature of the lady who knit them! It adds a real back-story to them in addition to being incredibly comfortable and well-fitted. Thanks Rocky!

    As an interesting side-note for the "Great Rabble," (and not to diminish my praise for Rocky) the kilt and flashes are from Keltoi, and the sporran is from the Artificer, so this is a real "X-Marks" outfit!

    That's a nice pin, and I really like the hose. Well done, Padre.
