Steeking Question

[gsmacleod]

Maybe you could post a pic of what your kilt looks like where the steeking has let go so we can see what you're looking at? That way, we could help you better.

Here, there is stitching right at the bottom of the fell:

So it would appear the previous owner decided to add this line of stitching and those stitches are letting go.

Thanks again to both you and Steve. Next time I'll remember to look at both sides of a kilt before jumping to conclusions!
