    How to Handle a Pull

    I checked back on previous threads to see if there was any info on this problem, but couldn't find any in the past year, so here we go. I have found a 1/4" pull on one of the pleats on my 8 yarder and was wondering if there was a better fix than others. On most of my woolens I have incurred this in the past and just pulled the isolated thread back to the inside. I know I am probably making a mountain out of a molehill but was curious if the experienced kilters had a better fix. Just new to kiltting I want to take advantage of the knowledge on this forum. Thanks.
