Having seen various people's rather good work, I'm tempted to try and make my own jacket as I can't afford the rather extravagant prices I've seen on the supplier websites.

Any one know how much material I'd need to make an Argyl or Prince Charlie jacket?

Found a source of 14oz black at £22.50 a metre so thought I might get the old sewing box out. I know 16oz is normally used but trying to budget.
