Plus allowance for any knot you use, or "wrap under". Let me think about that... If "regular" kilt host fit you, try 36 inches and adjust from there.

Also a spool knitter. You could actually make one from a large wooden spool, if you can find such a thing and some finishing nails. I tried a couple of versions from the craft stores, and we like the Wonder Knitter with the 6-peg head for a tubular garter.
