Reet Pleat for Macdonald of Sleat?

[pdcorlis]

What is the sett size on this fabric Turpin?

[Tattoo Bradley]

I definitely say the green. If not the green, I'd do it to the Sett.

What is the sett size on this fabric Turpin?

The sett is 4 inches. So 2 setts would make a good pleat depth, whether to the stripe or sett. Of course my other decision is whether to get it as a 5/6 yarder or full tank. The Davidson I have is about 6 yards and I really like it.

Broad green stripe.

I think the green will provide some much-needed relief to the dominance of the red.

I agree you need some relief from the red. pleat to the green

[Ruanaidh]

Pleating to the dark color allows the lighter color to "flash" when you walk.

I think the greens have it, and I tend to agree(n).

thanks to all who voiced an opinion. Collective wisdom is a good thing.

I just made one (a 5 yarder) and did it to the thin green stripe. It came out very nice.

[turpin]

I think I know who you did it for, too. IIRC, I sent you that cloth - it came off the same roll as what I have here.

did you take pix.

[RockyR]

no, unfortunately I didn't take pics... The first one was for his dad, not him. The second one (to be done in 6 weeks and counting) is for him.
