    This is a photo of the bottom edge. After I took the picture I noticed the little pin holes above the white stripe. I wonder what those are from? Maybe from the manufacturing process of the cloth?

    Those tiny holes are from the finishing process of the material weaving. They will shrink a LITTLE bit over time, but will always be there. They won't get any bigger and won't fray or anything.

    I thought they had something to do with the manufacturing process.

    I really like the tartan. This one will become my favorite tartan of the ones I have.

    Those tiny holes are on most wool kilts as well... you just have to look closely.
