Hey all, i have some questions I'd like to ask about kilt rolling. I have traditionally hung my kilts for long-term storage using the multi-hangar method, but have recently been told by some long-time kilt-wearers that Rolling is a better solution for keeping the pleats from splaying. I've lurked the forum and read a number of posts on the virtues of rolling vs. hanging, but not one has answered some of the more detailed questions I have - namely:

1. Rolled with the inside face-up, resulting in a completed roll that has the exterior of the kilt facing out? Or rolled with the outside face up, resulting in a completed roll that has the interior of the kilt facing out? (I'm assuming the former, but still want to ask)

2. How tight is the roll? Do you use anything as a core to roll it around, or just "hand-roll" it?

3. To tie or not to tie? I've seen posts that recommend tying 2-3 cords around the roll to keep it together. Others use elastic bands. Any worry about leaving band-marks in the kilt with months-long storage?

4. Storage bag - natural, synthetic, or none at all? I've seen others recommend a leg from a set of nylons, or a pllowcase.

5. The exterior storage box - is plastic/tupperware with some cedar blocks inside ok? I have heard people say that storing in plastic can damage the color of wool tartan if it comes in contact with the plastic, but i'm imagining that wrapping it in a storage bag and possibly a cotton/linen box liner would prevent this. I'm liking the idea of a sealable plastic storage box as this prevents moth incursion, but wondering if the lack of airflow could be detrimental?

Thanks for any light you choose to shed on the subject!
