    Hamo,

    In the diagram you show you are looking at the inside of a kilt.
    The circled part is the deep and reverse pleat behind the apron.
    The kilt in your diagram is knife pleated.

    Can we please see a photo of your altered kilt from the outside next to the aprons showing the pleats.

    Steve - the part that's circled is next to the underapron, not the apron (the diagram calls the underapron the "inside apron"; it calls the apron the "outside apron"). The "box pleat" he's talking about is the inverted (box) pleat next to the underapron. The kilt itself is knife-pleated.
