First tanks---it's true

Total agreement here. I have four kilts total since july and have to take a break due to expenses (new head gasket on the '93 Sable, Xmas trip, new tires, yada yada yada). Fortunately 2 of them are 8-yard made to measure. Of the other 2, one is a SWK heavy, the other a UK Mocker my family gave me for my birthday.

I haven't tried a PV yet. This is the first I've heard that the swish is noticeably different from wool. How much so? I've been thinking USAK semi next spring.

I don't know how to articulately quantify it, but one can tell the difference. Compared to "bouncy" 16 oz wool, the adjectives that come to mind for PVC are "clunky" and "leaden."
