    Nice find. Wearing a $20 kilt with a few wee moth holes just makes you look even more Scottish (i.e. frugal).

    I'd be tempted just to stop the fraying and leave it at that. The wee holes just add a bit of character!

    Hah, my mother's boyfriend the last decade of her life was a Scotsman and his favorite meal out was the $1 menu at McDonalds.

    Looking good! I would fray check it and leave it be, if anyone questions the holes go off on a yarn about fighting off a bear/mountain lion/pack of wolves/flock of women and are lucky to get away with just a few wee holes.

    Then completely change the tale each time somebody asks.
