There is even a search facility so 'Fabric Wool Tartan' can be looked for - it is sometimes a real tartan - you must take the description with a pinch of salt on some of these sales.

There is one seller who turns up quite regularly describing the fabric as a '100 percent wool mixture'.

Sure, x percent wool y percent something else where x plus y equals 100, a perfectly truthful description.

I have bought quite a few pieces of cloth from various sellers and it has always been for far less that I could have bought the equivalent quality from a shop, even including the postage.

It is addictive though. I have cloth stack up dangerously high and it is arriving faster than it can be cut and sewn together.

pleator, if that stack of fabric ever gets to be too much for you i woudl gladly provide it a nice safe warm comfortable home here in NJ... might even treat some of it to a bit of acupuncture & steam tretatments, while lovingly massaging it intoits true calling - kilts and similar garb...
