    I've been kind of wavering about whether or not I'll be able to do this but handling the material has given me a new boost of confidence.
    I agree. It's a great looking tartan!
    This will a first for me on two counts...first knife pleat and first time working with 16 oz. wool. I must say that it is a pleasure to work with. Everything is so dependably symmetrical! Lining up the stripes is a breeze compared to lesser fabrics I've used.
    And the aroma generated while pressing! Wow, I'd have to say that it's delightful.
    All in all, working with wool is a lot more pleasant than I realized.
