I am surely not using the proper terminology here, but hopefully you will understand what I am trying to convey.
Both of my wool, hand-sewn kilts have slivers of their bottom edge's tucked up and sewn to the body of the kilt in order to make the bottom edge run straight. Without close scrutiny of the bottom of the apron and its sides this is not noticeable.
When my first kilt arrived, a heavy weight single width Campbell of Argyll Weathered, I thought it was some sort of single width anomaly or possibly that it was sloppy workmanship. However, when my kilt of Kinloch Anderson manufacture also showed the same thing, I wondered if this is simply a necessary correction where making kilts is concerned.
