I'm new here, but I've got a question thats been nagging me for some time.
A while back, I bought some non-clan tartan in a medium weight wool. I have 3yds and it double-width. So I figure I have 6yds to make a kilt. Now I'm a pretty big guy so I figure I'm going to need every bit of it.
My question is, should I go with fewer (10) deep pleats or more (18-20) shallow pleats.
No, I don't have BarbT's book, yet. I found some basic kiltmaking instructions a year or so ago, and just recently dug them out.
Any help or thought would be appreciated.

Thanks
