Hey, I love his "label" (if you can really call it a label). The embroidery is really a nice touch of class!
Only one thing... it says "handwoven" on it. If that is Lochcarron's 16 oz strome, as you say it is, that's not handwoven. It's woven on great big giant mechanized looms in Lochcarron's mill. I'd hate to think what it would cost per yard if it was hand woven!!
Hnad woven cloth for kilting is something that you really have to go out of your way to find, and it's not cheap. I know a couple of weavers who could do it for you, and you are talking about well over $100 per yard (single width).
Anyway, great looking kilt and I'm glad you are enjoying it!
Matt
