Go ahead, laugh at me, but I wouldn't ever laugh at you because you couldn't afford a "Hand-made, Scottish wool kilt". Grant kids me about wearing my pyjamas when in one of my SKs, but I don't wear a $700 Cdn. garment to do my weekly shopping, take the dogs for a walk or run errands about town.
I have nine kilts now, and only one is a 13 oz. hand-sewn Scottish wool kilt, but it was made by Margaret Struth in Barrie, Ontario. Is it a kilt?
Oh, but is a 13 oz. wool kilt a kilt? How heavy should the wool be for it to be a true kilt? 16 oz? Oh dear, what will come to be of the tartan mills who are weaving PV materials for kilt making? They may have to lay off employees 'cause you can't make "kilts" from PV material?
