    Would you like a kilt in a Norwegian tartan??

    A fellow Norwegian has designed a new Norwegian tartan called "Norwegian Night" and it's registered in The Scottish Register of Tartans: http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tar...aspx?ref=10772

    This guy not only wanted to play around designing a tartan, but he wanted a kilt in this tartan. After some searching he has now decided to have the tartan woven at Marton Mills in the Jura 16oz 100% wool quality and he has made a deal with Lady Chrystel in France to make kilts of the fabric. He has gotten some positive respons on this tartan and a few people have inquired about kilts in this tartan. Therefor he asked me to help him spread the word about this oppurtunity to get a kilt in this tartan.
    He doesn't do this for profit, it's a completely a non-profit project. He is planning to order 34 meters of fabric, enough for about 8 kilts. The deal is that anyone how wants in on this order the fabric from him and pay him for the fabric, and then place the order for kiltmaking with Lady Chrysel and pay her for the making.
    If there is more people than 8 wanting in on this deal, he can order more fabric. But when the fabric is ordered, the deal is closed.
    The price on this deal is as follows: Price pr meter fabric is £24.30 + shipping to France (the plan is to ship the whole bolt of fabric to France and devide the shipping cost pr meter). Price for a made to measure kilt by Lady Chrystel is 250 euro + shipping and tax to where ever you want it sendt. Each and every one order his own kilt from Lady Chrystel and makes the payment for kilt to her.
    We are already 3 or 4 people signed up for this deal, so if you want in on this you have to sign up now. Send an e-mail to post@kilt.no or PM me and I will convey contact with the designer and owner of the tartan.

    Beautiful tartan, but no tank budget this year... I hope to get a good Norwegian tank someday though.

    Skål!

    Robert, I didn't know you have Norwegian ancestry. Can you tell me more about it?

    Anyone else interested in this tartan?
    The designer will go ahead and order the fabric in just a few days. The most important thing now is to order the fabric. You can order the kilt later, just be sure to order the right amount of fabric.

    A very nice tartan.
    My grandmother was norwegian, my mother born there.
    Would consider it if all my other kilt wishes - Smith modern, Smith weathered, Gow modern, Macpherson Hunting and Macpherson of Pitmain - were fulfilled...
