This will be the first time that it will have been woven correctly since c1740-45.
Peter - Looks like a fascinating project and the culmination of decades of scholarship by you! I wish you best of luck with the re-weave and perhaps some photos of the finished product! I realize this cloth will be used for kilts for you and your son, but how will you treat the cloth when the re-weave is complete? "In the grease"? Or washed and finished as a "soft" tartan?
