In that case, Mike S. should choose the red stripe to pleat to, otherwise there will be a green/black/green/black horizontal pattern if pleated to the double white stripes....

I agree, pleating to the sett is much more difficult - that's why I will be ordering and buying my kilts pleated to the sett - I am all fine and dandy doing them to stripe myself.... I started laying one out to sett, and it gave me too much of a headache!!!
