    Now that is some very nice work. My late dad, being an RCAF pilot during the war and up through the 50's, would have really liked the RCAF tartan.

    Currently taking wagers on how long it will be before the Lady gets her first order from Hamish!

    The double box pleat looks beautiful. What is the wool yardage required for that kind of kilt?

    Thank you all for your wishes and kind words.

    Lady Chrystel's Double Box is a 6 yards kilt.

    So it requires 3 yards of double width fabric. (approx. 55" to 60" wide)


    Best,

    Robert

    Upon looking at the video you made, it looks like more material than there actually is, and the swish is eye-catching. Please tell Lady Chrystel that she does wonderful work.
