Hey, he's part of the family too.

UPDATE: I heard from Gordon Kirkbright, and they can't do this tartan because some of the thread colors aren't available in polyester. They can do a run in Wool, but if their price is in there with what the X Marks tartan costs, might as well buy it from Rocky.

Pity.

OK, that answers several questions including a kilt I ordered from "He who must not be named" (will wait to see what "He" sends me ...).
Putting Rocky on the List of Possibilties.

Yes, if the thread colors aren't available in polyester, then a custom weave of Polyester/Viscose, obviously, is not possible. So I don't know what the gentleman whom you refer to had in mind. He messaged me about the tartan, as well, last July. He probably had a wool weave in mind. **sighing**
