    Starting my own Kilt making and/or Scottish item business

    Hi Kilted Rabble.

    Does anyone have their own kilt making business or a store selling kilt accessories? I'm interested in starting my own but wanted some advise, pros and cons etc...

    Thanks.

    If you want to actually make the items yourself then you could easily spend 5 years sorting out the knitted hose and burly jerseys, finding the raw materials and machinery, gaining the skills required to put together stitch patterns and the size/shape/style required - or are you hoping to find people willing to take on commissions to make things for you?
