Score!!!!
I've been looking for a good price on MacGregor for a while

Now while I'm waiting, I have to decide....sett or stripe?
Opinions?

Thanks Colin!

Definately stripe JimB.
I wonder if that 11 oz black wool would be decent for a kilt jacket? Anyone have experience in such things?

Thanks, I've got an old MacGregor, but this was too good to pass up. O'Neille

Ok, for the uninitiated of us.... Why to the stripe? With this tartan, I would think sett would be the better answer? (We are talking the white stripe, right?)
