less expense Harris Tweed, for a kilt (still looking)

[Paul Henry]

If I may sidetrack for a moment:
Paul (or Matt), when you hem a kilt, is the fabric folded once, leaving the raw edge exposed inside the kilt, or is it folded twice, concealing the raw edge? How deep is the folded-over portion? It seems that extra thicknesses of fabric would make the pleats splay out at the tail of the kilt.

I can't find the thread at the moment but we talked about this a little while ago, I only ever fold once, never twice, and that goes for tartan or tweed. sometimes I overlock/serge the edge, but not always, but I always steam press the inside edge with a dampl cloth for a while, which helps to slightly felt the inside edge and secure any loose threads.
