It seemed strange to measure that way, but I figured that they would add a couple of inches for the rise. Here are the instructions as I saw them, without the pic that accompanies them.
...Well, I just got an email. Since the kilt was made to the supplied measurements, it looks like I'm stuck with a mini-kilt.

JerMc,


On my last kilt purchase, I made a similar but opposite mistake - I gave the kiltmaker my overall kilt length - the fall plus the rise. So now I have a beautiful Locharron kilt in Robertson Hunting Ancient that is two inches too long. So until I shorten this made-to-measure kilt, I'm not wearing it out in public (good thing I have six others to choose from on hand).
