What are the dimensions of the square fromed by the pink stripes? The reason I ask is that if the horizontal distance between them is less than 6 inches the pleats are likely to be relatively shallow (2 1/2" with a 1" reveal). I experience this with my Gordon Modern which is about 5 1/2 " between stripes. Still gives great swing, though, in part because it has about 35 pleats!

Nice looking tartan, Robin.
I know you are a man who like many knife pleats but what about....
A box pleat kilt from MAtt that is pleated to the thin black stripe so the box pleat "hides" the thin pink stripe. I think it would look great to see hints of the pink stripe while walking or moving..."flashes" of color during movement :rolleyes:
similar to KCW Xmarks box pleat kilt with the yellow stripe within the pleat.
Cheers,

You will have better luck sending him a PM or contacting him through http://www.kiltgoodies.com

Can't wait to have a Dutch Tartan kilt myself!
Robin when it's done, post the kilt online because we (well I'am) curious how it's going to look like!

Thanks for resurrecting this thread.
I have a couple lines of Dutch in my blood. One of them hopped aboard the Mayflower back in 1620...the other slipped into Philadelphia a hundred years later.
So, it goes on my list too.
