oooh, duh...I should use a calculator next time. crud. alrighty, where to find wool...
Just search ebay for "wool tartan" or even just "tartan" or "wool plaid" and limit the search to the fabric section in the crafts group.
Just that I've been looking at their stuff myself. Would make a nice old military weight kilt. Solid colours, limited to maybe 7 yards.
Another place you might look is pool table suppliers. The billiard cloth on some tables is a very nice 26 oz. wool and comes in some very nice colors. There was a thread about this a while back but I can't find it now.
Looks like I've found a place to get wool for a cloak, at least! <$9 per yard is a lot better than $17+!

Better check again, thats $9/half yard.
D'oh! Good call.
