I just shipped this one out this morning. I thought I'd post it here, for our resident MacPhersons. It's a 5 yard Kingussie pleated kilt, in the Hunting MacPherson tartan, heavy weight. The interesting thing about this cloth is that it has a teasle raised finish, making it feel almost like regimental weight cloth, even though it is worsted.

I actually have about 5 yards, 28" wide, left of this cloth if anyone might be interested...









As you know I sometimes like to pair up hose color recommendations with the tartans I am working with. With this one, many would opt for grey or black. Here's a photo with a mid-grey pair of Lewis hose.


It looks good, as would black or charcoal. But not that exciting. I'd be more inclined to wear a pair of hose that tones with one of the minor stripes of the tartan, such as this pair of loval blue Lewis hose.


Or my favorite, claret! This is a cooler shade of red than the red in the tartan, but I think it works quite well and I actually prefer this to the brighter red hose that are also available.
