Traditional Garter Ties

Hi Ron, Never thought much about the fringes. I wonder if you could dampen a cloth and place the fringes in the fold and steam them with an iron?

I really like mine and I need to order another pair to go with my Isle of Man kilt Matt is making. What color do you think would go with this tartan?

A bunch depending on what color kilt hose you wear....thinking yellow garter ties to pick up the yellow in the kilt. Would go with most colors of kilt hose that match the tartan or go neutral to the tartan...

Would it work to run a drier sheet over it?

I was going to suggest the same thing. I used to use a Bounce sheet on my hair, when I still had some, and it worked wonders.

Ask Matt to choose. He has them right in front of him right? I asked him to decide on mine with my ancient MacLachlan, I concur.
