Review of Frugal Corner Custom Kilt...

[ccga3359]

After many delays and missed communications I finally got my Black Watch custom kilt that I ordered back in June. It was worth the wait. It is a 16 oz acrylic and it looks great. It fits prefectally and really hangs nice. I wish I could get wool but as my wife is seriously allergic to wool I will stay with acrylic.
The bottom line is with all of the effort put forth by the people at FC to try to make sure I had a kilt for vacation and to get me my kilt I would order from them again!!!
I will post pics in the next few days of it and of my new SWK thrifty in Scottish National...

Off topic but curious. Does marino wool cause the same reactions to thiose with allergies?

I have a slight allergy to raw wools but I don't seem to have the same reactions to worsted wools. I don't know why this is, but we have some raw wool throws that I can't have next to me but I can wear my heavyweight wool kilt with no problems. Weird skin I guess!

I wonder if the allergy is to the wool or the lanolin/oils in the raw wool. Worsted and processed wools have many of the oils removed.

I would agree. I have learned how it's cats' saliva which causes allergies, and not the hair itself. so probably same situation with sheep wool.
