    How should I get my Isle of Skye pleated?

    I've been on the wait list for a heavyweight handsewn Isle of Skye (Lochcarron Strome) kilt and the maker says he's ready to start, and how do I want it pleated?

    I know I don't want it pleated to the tartan.

    I love this photo of an XMarker Member's kilt:



    How is this one pleated? Is it indeed to the rust lines?

    The kiltmaker sent me photos of various pleating options:

    To the pairs of rust lines:


    to the rust block:


    to the black stripe:


    and to the green area:


    What do you think?

    Has anyone had their kilt pleated to the white lines?

    Thanks, Richard
