New kilt

[Andrew Breecher]

I've been remiss in posting this, because I haven't had any time lately. Last Friday I came home from work to a package sitting by my door. It was my new semi-trad St. David's tartan kilt from Rocky - I wasn't expecting this until at least a week or two after Christmas. I hadn't considered when I ordered it that the red and green would be Christmas colours, so I purposely didn't wear it yesterday. I didn't get this just for Christmas, and I didn't want to hear people say, "Oh, you have a Christmas kilt!"



The pleats are a little wrinkled because I've been sitting on them all day, but if I took the time to fix them they'd hang perfectly. This is an interesting tartan, because even when you pleat it to sett it's almost pleated to stripe!

That is very nice. I was thinking the same thing about the pleating, is it sett, stripe, both?
Unique effect. That brown belt was made for that kilt!

A most excellent looking kilt.

Well done Rocky!

Thanks for sharing! I've had my eye on that tartan for a while, and it's good to know how good it can look in person (so to speak).

That's a nice looking kilt. -But what is the patern, as it's not tartan? I did a search for St Davids, and came up blank

[Galician]

It is called, to the best of my knowledge, either the St. David's, or the Welsh National tartan. It's stocked by both USAK--Andrew's source--and SK.

St. Davids is the Welsh National tartan.
