Source for saffron or green wool/pv?

[DocKAT123]

SO Jimmi, where'd you get the saffron wool at $24 yd?
I'm in NYC & don't know where to go.
Tried the Bear & he's got tartans only.
So, for the 2nd pt of my request, for a kilt sans pleats do I need 8 yds or can I do with 5 or 6?
Thanks boys

DocKAT 123,

Please note that the thread your responded to was from way back in 2005. Jimmy Carbomb has not been around here for quite a few years.

Trying to find sources for good Kilt fabrics is the bane of the new Kiltmaker.

You can do what the rest of us do and contact the same weavers we do in Scotland and England.

One of the best sources at a reasonable price is Marton Mills.

Another source would be Lochcarron which has offices in both the US and Canada. Try
