That's a County Westmeath tartan. I didn't put that in the post 'cause it was in the title.But there you have it!
Rigged, I believe it's pleated too the stripe. The tartan matches up perfectly. Maybe someone here can explain to me the types of pleating. The camera's out of power so I'll post a pic later on.

Pleated to sett means the design on the pleats is the same as on the apron. Pleated to stripe means a prominent stripe is centred on each pleat, so that the pleats look entirely different from the apron.

Great looking kilt Oz.
BTW, is that a Thor's hammer you're wearing? I wear one of those myself.

It is indeed Oswulf.I made this one using cuttlefish bone casting, and ancient technique often used by viking artisans.I based it on traditional designs.
here's a couple of pics

Damn, that is too cool! You do good work.

Cheer Oswulf. I'm working on one with more detail but slightly smaller. These I'll be willing to repeat for select clients...such as my fellow X Marks! May not be for a while tho.
