    Premier is 8 yards, invisible stitching (pleats sewn inside out), pleats steeked and scalloped, horsehair lining handsewn in as well as a cotton lining. Labor time: 20 - 24 hours

    5 Yard wool is top stitched, less material and not lined... saves about 15 hours of labor.

    Current lead time is about 8 weeks.

    Are the five yarders steeked?
