    ties...

    Thanks for the tip -- I had a pair of red garter ties that a friend made for me that I used to wear with my old tartan hose; I've been looking for a source for them for a while for my new hose.

    They are, INMHO, quite classy. Kinda like a "real" bow tie versus the pre-tied variety!

    Cheers,

    Todd

    The Garter Ties are completly new to me. I'm looking around and thinking seriously about making a few myself. Highland Clans is the only place I've found them, that price is a little high.

    I make 'em, if anyone is interested. They are exactly the same as those worn by many native men while in regalia. I fingerweave them. I have no digital, so what I'll do is offer a free pair to the first individual (must be a knowledgeable kilt wearer) to PM me.

    Maybe 30 seconds after my last, Cajunscot pm'd me. He's #1. All I've asked from him is a simple review. So, if you guys looking to order from elsewhere, can hold off for about a week, you should have his review. Takes me no time at all to do, mail would take a few days though. So, he should have them by early next week.

    Ah that figures, mere hours after I ordered a pair. Well, if I like the ones I'm getting I'll definitely be in the market for some more.

    Fingerweaving is the method I'm going to use. I'll be looking forward to Cajunscots review.
