Does anyone else sweep their pleats when wearing pants?

It has been known when getting in a car for me too!

I wish I wore a kilt oftern enough to have that reflexive habit . . . but I'm working on it!!

I have done that also. A few times it has been around those that are not aware of my kilts. I have received a few strange looks.

Funny question. I guess I do on occasion find myself sweeping non-existent pleats. I have not yet tried "reaching for the selvedge on my front apron", but I am sure it is just a matter of time

I guess I'm with mrtackytn and need to get more into the kilting habit.

It happens once in a while when getting into the car. I haven't done it anywhere else,...yet.

Yeah, I have phantom pleat syndrome too.

Please refrain from doing that again.

If it's not in the rules, it should be.

I am afraid of having the reverse problem the first time I have the opportunity to wear a kilt. When wearing trousers (avoiding the dreaded "p" word) I grip the legs twixt thumb and forefinger so I can hitch them up a bit in order to avoid stretching the fabric in the knees. Now that I am 52 this action is reflexive and could provide great amusement for those around me should I perform that action whilst kilted.
