    The reason why I started this Thread is that Lady Chrystel is planning to make many more of her Double Box Pleat Kilts , some of which will be 11 oz., 13-14 oz. and 16 oz.
    She was thinking of a lining system of some sort with invisible stiches etc. She isn't sure yet, and was simply wondering if someone pondered the matter .

    OK - now I see where you are going.... I have kilts that have the lining made of silk, cotton, and synthetic. I think the most effective linings are the cotton ones. If I were to choose the perfect lining I think it would be Egyptian Cotton, similar to good bed sheets.

    Bike shorts sounds like a fun thing to wear ! Thank you Barb !

    Brother, it's hard enough getting me out of my kilts, you make them that comfy, and I'll NEVER take 'em off!
