    County Limerick - kilt?

    I am contemplating my next kilt and have found the name of the paternal line most likely originated in County Limerick. Has anyone, or know anyone, who has a kilt in the Irish County Limerick tartan? My eye is not very good at imagining it pleated.

    The Munster (province) I'm not as keen on, even though that one is likely more available than Limerick.

    Which might be fun - to have a "Limerick kilt"

    There once was a man in a kilt
    From Limerick the tartan was built
    He looked dashing and fair
    (don't ask what's under there)
    and when whiskeyed he'd walk with a tilt

    Drop Rocky a line over at USA kilts, if any one has a good idea on how that tartan would look pleated, he would. The County Limerick Crest tartan, looks like it would pleat up very well to sett or a stripe.

    If you want a kilt with some kick
    Get one from County Lim'rick
    I don't mean to brag
    But it's got some swag
    Choosing the pleating's the trick

    USA Kilts is the one to ask . I imagine they do plenty of kilts in the Limerick tartan beings as they are very close to Limerick township .
