I pulled out my D C Dalgleish kilt in Cameron of Erracht in the weathered palette to compare. The colouring looks the same, the sett size seems to be similar (about 7"), and mine is pleated to the sett too, but mine would probably take being pleated to a stripe, because it is less 'busy' as it does not have the narrow white stripes of the Scott. In general, my pleating preference is to the sett, except if there is a possibility that to the stripe might have a nice 'flash'.

Curious thing about my CofE (W). A noticeable proportion of women whom I have asked, perhaps the majority, have negative reactions to the colouring, right from my mother's "Yuck!" when I first opened the package; men generally like it. Barb, what gender is your customer, if I may ask?
