Also,

Do you want/must have worsted wool?

Or will "saxony"/fuzzy normal wool be OK?

The second is MUCH cheaper, but doesn't look as good in a kilt-esque garment, or wear as well. It makes a HUGR difference on where you can/want to get fabric.

In your area, I'd also contact Mary Jo's up in Gastonia, NC and see if they have anything (only applies to "fuzzy wool").

I still say that PV is a good option.
