Wrote... Having a purled fringe really makes the fly plaid seem like a special garment for special occasions - which is what a fly plaid should be all about! But before ordering, it's worth thinking about exactly what you want. This fly plaid has a relatively small number of rather heavy/thick purls along the edge; others I've seen have a larger number of smaller/thinner purls (maybe 3 or 4 times as many). There's obviously a price/value tradeoff re such handwork (a smaller number of thicker purls obviously help keep the cost down, while a large number of small purls, each hand twisted & tied is a lot of work). The large purls are nicely done on this, and either way, a purled fringe is much nicer looking than the basic fringe that doesn't having the purling. But it's all a matter of preference. This fly plaid also has pleats sewn in for the corner that you pin to your shoulder. Such pre-sewn pleating is convenient and leaves less room for confusion about how one is "supposed to" pin such a thing on, which is nice if you've never worn such a thing and/or don't have much of a feel for how fabric drapes and hangs. On the other hand, leaving the pleating to the wearer to accomplish by properly pinning it does leave more room for such chivalrous gestures as unpinning your plaid and offering it to your lady to wear as a shawl if she's cold (in which case the pleats flatten out and the flyplaid becomes a big square shawl with nicely fringed ends that just happens to be a perfect match with your kilt!) Definitely a great thing to wear!
