Newbie with diy question
Hi to all!
Where I live the kilts are seen on TV only, so I must admit I haven't try to go kilted in public, yet. Guess I'm not Man enough to to this, but I'm working on that. This is more to avoid pressure on my Family and not so much for my own reasons.
I made my first kilt form dark blue fabric, which used to be a part of Aikido gear (plus some left-overs). The instruction from X-Kilt were used. The final product was not so bad, but the fabric wrinkles so much that I should take an iron wherever I go. So it can't be used really.
Now I bought a sort of Camo fabric (forest) which is very light-wight. What I would like to do is light-weight summer kilt, box pleated, with sporran in same fabric (to be used as a side as a pocket or in front as a sporran). Maybe even a basballcap or hat in the same design.
My question is; what can be done to keep the kilt from rising in the wind to much? Velcro on the hem of apron,...?
Thanks!
P.S.: Sorry for speling errors. English is not my native language.
