It is a 100% wool fabric that we found really cheap at a store that was going out of business.
My husband likes it because it allows him to wear a kilt and still "fly under the radar"
because the colors are muted, and he thought it would be cool-looking.
The pattern was actually hard to work with!

That looks fantastic. I just wish I could sew like that.... luckily my sister's husband is a house hubby. He is a whiz with his sewing machine. Just got to talk him into making me one.

Thank You! Actually, surprisingly little was done on the sewing machine!
Everything except waistband, the buckles and straps everything were hand sewn...
