Thank you Steve. The Cornovi Black Cornish Kilt is made from 8 yards of 16 oz Scottish wool ,claimed to be available from three separate mills in Scotland for manufacture by a Cornish Kilt maker. Cornovi have orders for eight kilts, manufacturing time two and a half days, waiting time for delivery ,up to two months.
If I had gone for a 16 oz rare family tartan from Scotland, Delivery would have been four months as tartan would have had to be made on the mill and cost would have been fifty percent more than Cornovi , which I consider to be average price......Roderick
