I recently purchased my second kilt off of e-bay (pictures to follow as soon as I figure out what's wrong with my camera) and I was curious how you can determine how many yards of material are in a kilt? I know I can probably get exact by taking a measurement of each pleat and the aprons and doing the math to get an exact number. However, as I am perfectly happy with an approximate estimate I'd rather avoid all that math. I am guessing I can just measure one pleat, multiply by the number of pleats, and go from there but wanted to be sure I wasn't going to miss some of the kilt builders magic.
I promise pics will come once my camera is working because I also need some tartan ID help as well.
