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.

Nouvelles merveilleuses! I genuinely wish Lady Chrystel the best, Bonne Chance!
(I have one of Lady Chrystel's Kilts on my wish list at spot #2, either the "Bro-Leon" or the "Btittany Walking".)

Those are beautiful kilts. I would love to add one of those to my wardrobe in the future. Best of luck!

That double box pleat looks fantastic!
Best of luck to the both of you.
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear
