R'lyeh Sett arrrived today!

[Jordan]

thanks Downunder!

Although I just noticed that the sett size is 8.5" instead of 8"

A small detail, but definitely off from what was specified.

ith:

I would say drop them an email and let them know that its not right. It was after all a custom order, It Should Be as specified.

Not that they will reply The comunication is terrible.

Hey, who knows, they might do another run for free, never know.....

For those of us opting for 6 yard box pleated kilts, the incerased sett size is actually an advantage.

Yet another abominable anomaly in what was already a thing that should not be.

I cannae wait!!!

[Newfoundlander]

Not sure if it was asked, and I just missed it, but are you thinking pleating to the sett or stripe? That's going to make a fine looking kilt indeed I think

[xman]

Looks fine indeed! Congrats.

I, personally, wouldn't cry over 1/2 inch discrepancy in the sett size. And, I will also point out, that there may be some minor variation in the sett repeat size over the course of the 128 yard length of the run. It does happen sometimes. And it may also make a difference if the sett repeat was being measured across the warp or the weft.

LoL. It could also be a matter of the maths of adding threads to given elements in proper proportion. Where, in a given sett, it might not work out to an even 8". When Dalgliesh originally calculated it, the sett was close to 7.25", they asked if that was good or if I wanted to go to 8" as was originally specified. I said 8".

I have no plans to file a complaint. As Dale said, it's an anomaly, and, given the subject matter, I am well satisfied that the Great Old Ones have made their will manifest in the maths of the sett.

Well, we already ken that HPL's maths were. . .a wee bit different from ours.

I got my parcel today, photos to go on the other thread.
