Let's see your THCD formal attire!

The reason that the material had a pucker is because Dalgliesh must have used yarn from different spinners meaning that the yarn, whilst having the same appearance, will have been spun to a different tension and so each will shrink differently as soon as the cloth is taken off tension and especially during the finishing. Cloth like that should be returned as unserviceable.

Peter, thanks for the disturbing information. I should have complained right away. I fear it's too late now, as those three kilts were made several years ago. I'll just right it off as stupidity on my part (kilt maker too); "learning the hard way."

It would be nice to have the kilts remade but the cost, now, would be too prohibitive. I wish Wally would have picked up on that, also, as we could have sent it back.

Not only did the material have a pucker to it, it just didn't feel like my first kilt's material. Can't explain it, but I know something is off.
