Thanks for the heads-up on the selvedge. I guess I did miss a thread, but this could be one of those opportunities that should not be missed. (I could always hem it. I'm short enough that I could remove one repeat & still have enough. (Finally a reason to be happy about being vertically challenged.) Otherwise, the pattern would not match with a kilt that had a good selvedge.)

Hemming was an option that we discussed when it was found out that the selvadge was damaged. In the end when Steve recieved the tartan and examined it closely he felt it would not meet the quality muster so he rejected it. Don't get me wrong hemming is a definate way to handle it.

So are we assuming this is run #2.5, shown here?
If so, depending on the amount of damage, it could still be used.
And as a side thought - 80 meters, divided by ... how many SOKS do we have now? The SOKS could quadruple MacHummel's workload overnight. (After the Mapleleafs are done, of course.)

There's about a dozen of us. I'm not interested, because if I bring home another kilt, the wife would... well it could be hemmed up three full repeats and I'd still be modest!

OK it's 16 oz wool and in the warm weather giddiness I forgot the winter smoke breaks on kilt nights. I'm interested. One thing MacHummel works in pv, seldomly in wool. Would it be be fair to him to all of a sudden ask him to make a dozen wool kilts. Anyone willing to take this on?
Just a thought one only needs 4 metres sw for a box pleat right?

Subtle hint! I don't have a credit card so I wouldn't be able to swing it.
