Yardage
Out of curiosity: When speaking of a kilt made of 4 yards vs 8 yards how is this measured? I made my kilt using 4 yards of 54" material split and joined on the end for a total of 8 yards linear. Would this be an 8 yard kilt or 4 yard? Do all manufacturers figure this the same way? ie. does one 4 yard kilt only contain 1 4 yard roughly 24 inch wide piece of fabric or is it 8 yards of 24 inch?
This is probably the proverbial stupid question but I am just curious what the standard is.
