Barb's first box pleated kilt

[billmcc]

Barb,

Very nice!

I have a question about one of the colors in this tartan. One of the bold stripes looks brown on my monitor. Is it brown or some other color?

That is a cool kilt, and a cool tartan.

[David Dalglish]

Very nice indeed Barb.

One of the bold stripes looks brown on my monitor. Is it brown or some other color?

Yup! The stripe that borders the deep royal blue is a dark tan. The pictures as posted on the site look a little faded on my monitor. I know that monitors differ a lot, but I might try re-processing the pics and uploading them again.

And, to answer another question, Lochcarron weaves it.

WOW! That is really a nice looking kilt!

A box pleat is more difficult than A knife pleat. However, 8 to 10 box pleats are much easier than 25 to 30 knife pleats. :-)

Wow, image 2 needs to be titled something like "Pleat Perfection" or something akin to it. "Fabulous Fit", perhaps?
