Funny you should ask...

I had decided to go ahead and have it pleated to the yellow (seemed most traditional) based on most peoples comments.

Then in the last two weeks there was a rash of postings here with kilts pleated to the dominant color (no stripe), the way I had originally suggested to Rocky. I decided that that was how I really wanted it, and it was my kilt darn it. So I e-mailed Rocky last monday and said go for it.

He e-mailed back Tue morning saying that he was about to get started, but...The tartan, when it finally came in had a smaller sett that he had thought he was ordering (4.4" vs 5.5"), and he was reccomending that everyone pleat to sett since that would give a deeper pleat.

I thought about it, and then decided to go ahead with the no stripe pleat, and I'm just going to live with the shallowness. On Thursday, it occurred to me that maybe I could live with fewer pleats and have two repeats under each pleat (my Tank is like this with a 4.5" sett), but I decided that it was too late and didn't contact Rocky. As it is the pleats should be comparible to my nightstalker SWK with it's 3.5" sett pleated to sett, so the pleats should be about 2" deep.
