Maybe I'm missing something but 120 yards of Poly-vicose is only 15 guys who want an 8 yrd kilt or 30 who want a 4 yrd kilt. With the initial response we've had is this really so unrealistic?

Double width cloth would mean 120 yards = 30 8-yard traditional style, or 60 4-yard casuals.
Okay, that's twice as many as I was thinking, but maybe it's still a concievable number. Certainly a bigger number than homespun or a specialty weaver, but maybe it's still concievable. Didn't we just pass 500 members? 10% of the membership ordering for a combination of 4 & 8 yrd kilts.
