Kiltmaker's Input Requested, & Who Wants Cthulu Tartan Yardage?

Definitely interested if it is not too late, but I've read through the entire thread and haven't seen any mention of the weight of the fabric. Does anyone know what it will be?

Though not explicitly stated, I understood it would be standard 16 ox

That was a typo, and, beef is cow.

(Leaving the typo now for humor value)

A cow is beef, but not all beef is necessarily cow. It's bovine and so are oxen. Likewisely* classified, a square is rectangle sharing four 90º corners and opposite sides of the same length, but not all rectangles are necessarily square.

* 'Likewisely'. Did you like that one? I just made it up.

Will our esteemed kilt-makers be driven mad working with this unnatural abomination?

Beef is often steer.

I'll be getting in contact again with Dalgliesh this week to try and firm up colours and shipping info. We seem to have a permanent email problem, in that they can receive but not reply...

We should be able to break 100! Man up rabble!!

Of course a 100 yard bolt might very well end the universe as we know it. If nothing else it would be a mighty talisman to summon forth the Old Ones...

I've got two guys at work interested (one already a kilt wearer and owner, the other new to it), so I think I could bump this up another four yards, but neither have confirmed yet
