    Gorgeous kilt; nice job, Barb!

    Who weaves "Scottish Odyssey?" Is it just my eyes, or do the vertical blues look much stronger that the horizontal?

    It's hard to tell, with just the one picture of the apron, but I think it's an illusion. If you look at the individual squares, they seem to be about the same hue.

    And this really is a beautiful tartan, and a fine kilt.

    Box pleat is actually easier than knife pleat.

    Barb,

    Very nice!

    I have a question about one of the colors in this tartan. One of the bold stripes looks brown on my monitor. Is it brown or some other color?

    Yup! The stripe that borders the deep royal blue is a dark tan. The pictures as posted on the site look a little faded on my monitor. I know that monitors differ a lot, but I might try re-processing the pics and uploading them again.

    And, to answer another question, Lochcarron weaves it.
