    Re: R'lyeh Sett Jonesin' Thread...

    Boys, it seems my kilt is underway. I think I just might beat everyone else to the punch.

    Hahahaha- I was hoping someone would notice that.

    Re: R'lyeh Sett Jonesin' Thread...

    I know Matt has posted some wide pleat options, I am making a 8 yard traditional knife pleat , and I've pinned some further tests showing a narrower pleat.
    The wide green line isn't really wide enough to have it as a complete pleat, except if there were rather a lot of very narrow pleats, but I suppose that is still an option!
    The triple purple works best I think if the pleat become centred, as the complete arrange is a little too wide to make a good number of knife pleats.
    The half and half manages to maintain most of the colours in a balanced form.

    Of course the final decision is down to my client, but it's always interesting to see the various options!

    Thanks Paul! I am definitely looking forward to seeing which one is selected for this. When I designed it I was definitely thinking more along the lines of a box pleat, so it's interesting to see how it behaves for knife pleats.
