I stumbled onto this site while looking for an alternative to a utilikilt, and found the x-kilt plans.
They were exactly what I was looking for, and I've now almost completed my first x-kilt!
All of the instructions made good sense to me, exept for one.
I have never made or worn a real kilt before, so I am unfamiliar with how the pleats are suppose to work.

Page 25 has the text (my comments in red):
Take the kilt to the ironing board and open up that deep reverse pleat that lies under the over-apron. [okay, so now the reverse pleat points towards the center of the over apron] Fold back about 2.5 – 3 inches, down at the hem, and make a nice even fold on that deep pleat all the way up to the waistband. [so now the pleat has a new edge that lies under the left edge of the over apron] It will get deeper as you approach the waistband, OK?….only 2.5 inches deep at the hem, but nearly 5 inches deep at the waistband.

I'm confused. Does that mean that I'm supposed to wind up with an accordian pleat at the left edge of my over apron? In other words, my over apron left edge is a pleat, with another pleat edge directly under it?
I've searched through these forums and found that many people just make one big pleat. Can anyone verify how this piece works?
Thanks in advance for any/all help.
