Since I ripped out the only pleat I had done on the new kilt, I guess I can ask this now.

OK, I am pleating to the stripe. As it stands, I have 43 pleats (symmetrical around the back center stripe). 1/2" at the hips (21" in. in pleats) and ~7/16" at the waist (18.5" in pleats). Overall measurement is 38.5W 41H.

Should I remove a few and make them larger, or just go with what I have??
