    No Longer Kiltless (Soon)

    I lurked around here for awhile and finally joined about three weeks ago. If you read my newbie post, you'll know I'm kiltless. Many great welcoming posts (thanks) and valuable info from Ardchoille that has allowed me to purchase a kilt on the payment plan. But that wasn't enough. Today I ordered THREE kilts: Irish Saffron from SWK; Forest Green canvas from Buzz Kidder and Irish National 8 yard 13 oz from Scotland Yard. Wow, this IS an addiction. I've got my next one picked out, when I get the bucks together--a Carolina Tartan from Matt. If anyone has any of these kilts, I'd like to hear your opinion of my choices. "Nearly Kilted"!

    After the kilt comes the sporran, flashes, hose, sgian dubh, belt, kilt pin, etc, etc.
    Welcome to the addiction, there is no cure except more kilts.

    Is your SWK saffron there yet? Jerry usually gets them to you an hour before you order them. Did you order the Standard or the Heavyweight Wool. I love my wool Saffron kilt.

    I ordered the standard. I was a bit concerned because of the very low price. Hope it turns out ok.
