Matt Newsome shows some good hose options here: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...48#post1174248
Personally, I'm a fan of the purple.

Oh well, I'm scheduled to be eaten on Monday. We'll see then!
When we pleat up our 5 yard kilts, we try not to let the pleats go over 1.1" wide (unless the customer specifically requests it and we make note of the request releasing us from blame). Since the outer 2 purple stripes are about 1.5" apart, the option was to either pleat it to the CENTER stripe (omitting the outer 2) OR cocking it slightly one way to pleat to 2 of the 3 (omitting only 1). I mocked it up both ways and preferred this way, so that's how we're pleating it.

Yes. We're pleating it to the "Half Sett" as it's an ABAC tartan, but it is working perfectly. Just like the photo we posted...

That's very nice kilt! Whoever got this must be really lucky!
