    It is, indeed, an excellent book, directed to the making of a traditional kilt using worsted wool fabric. You will want it for that project when it comes time.

    Your previous post mentioned a modern kilt. If you are using fabric other than wool, consider kiltmaking instructions found on websites such as this:
    http://users.telenet.be/jbruyndonckx/kilt_making.html . The basic construction of kilts, traditional and modern, is the same, but the different fabrics do have significant differences in the way they can be handled.

    I have made all kinds of kilts for various purposes, and did each one a little bit better than the last. The fun is just beginning for you. Welcome to the addiction!
