ok...time to get this show on the road.

here are my latest kilted purchase. Four Black Watch tartan kilts I bought on ebay.



and here they are, layed out...ready to have their pleat-threads removed.

[Kilted KT]

When you get a new kilt, the pleats are sewn together. You need to remove this thread before you can wear it right. Be careful, though. If you try to pull it out all at once, you can rip a hole in your new kilt. Don't want that.



Every few pleats, be sure to cut the thread. Pulling it through uncut may put a damage your kilt.



The last few stitches can be difficult to get out of the pleats. Be patient and take your time. The kilt isn't going anywhere.



One more thread to pick out before I can wear it.

you can almost see his hands shaking in these pics - i bet the excitement was killing him...

[Kilted KT]

as with any fine wine, you need to let the kilt breath for a few minutes. Let it get used to freedom before you put it on for the first time.

here is an up-close of the pleats. The kilt is pleated to the stripe, and looks pretty good.
