    R'lyeh Tartan ORDERING Thread

    Alright cultists, here's where we start to tally totals for our second run.

    The tartan is the R'lyeh Sett in it's "original" colours (or as close as custom dyeing will allow us to get) from DC Dalgliesh in their K1 Heavyweight wool (15oz) with a natural kilting selvedge.

    as photographed by our own Matt Newsome from the last run-

    from the thread HERE, which also includes some lovely pleating examples for people to mull over.

    Obviously the width (single vs double) will be dependent on the final quantity ordered, but most likely it will be double width again,
    last time the price came out to around £21/yd (currently $32US) before shipping/local taxes, but I'm guessing we'll be a bit more expensive with Dalgliesh being under new ownership.

    If we can keep the off-topic chatter elsewhere that would be most helpful
    , these threads can get somewhat long and involved and I'd hate to miss someone's request or miscalculate yardage and
    have someone get shorted.

    If you missed this tartan last time and are still kicking yourself, now's the time to order. Managing these orders takes up rather a lot of time, so the next conceivable occasion we might order again (if ever) would
    be a few years down the road.

    What I need in your reply is your XMarks handle and the number of total yards you need (in single width).

    This thread will be open until July 7th at which point I will hopefully be submitting the order to Dalgliesh. Stragglers will most likely be out of luck, and quite possibly eaten by Shoggoths.
    The after-order scrabbling for last order's yardage goes on to this day and is known to have driven a handful of people quite mad.

    May We Be Eaten First!
