OHHHH YYYEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!!!!
16! 16! 16! 16! 16! 16! 16! 16!
(The earlier run was 14, so some us WILL be in for a 16 that would not be for a 14.)
If 16, I WILL buy 2 meters! (Maybe 4)
(My wife will kill me either way, but she'll STILL get the bill!)
Also, note, there is not THAT much difference between 2 oz, but it WILL make the kilt hold a pleat better (esp. with F & K fabric).
For some reason, F&K feels lighter than it really is. One kiltmaker even WEIGHTED it to make sure it really WAS 14 oz, because it "feels" like a lighter weight.
16 is also IDEAL weight for a 4 yard box pleat!!
(I see a poll between 14 and 16 coming, but ONLY by those getting fabric!)
