I think my kilt would stretch my hose unacceptably.

Do practice rolling your kilt a few times. About the third or fourth time through I started getting it right smoothly and consistently.

I have read a few times here that a retired leg of lady's hose works wonderfully as a rolled kilt holder. I would agree that my 36" waist 8 yard tank, smoothly rolled, would probably fit into the thigh portion of the retired leg of normal sized female hose.
