After careful consideration I am going to pleat this to the sett. Part of this comes from something I found about the Australian Police Tartan. I know that tartan has nothing to do with the IPA but the designers of that tartan intended it to be pleated to the sett because the layout and colors have meaning. Could be the same for IPA but I have nothing to suggest it. My second choice would have been to the yellow stripe. At ¾” pleat width that would be a lot of yellow in the back. Also there are two thin light blue lines that would have disappeared in the taper on both sides of the yellow. Going to 1” pleat width would preserve those lines however.
So I had better get started.
Thanks for everyone’s input.
