Historically women did not
wear kilts. However, they did wear a similar plaid called an earasaid.
The earasaid is "the woman's great kilt". Worn over an under-dress the
earasaid can be very versatile. It can be worn long or short, for warmth
or for style. The perfect compliment to any period costume. For more information,
download our How to
Wear the Earasaid instructions.
Homespun
Tartan
Our Homespun tartan is made from a 55/45 blend of polyester and wool.
It is woven by hand on old-world looms, and looks very authentic to
what would have been woven historically. The yarn is worsted, but
not spun as tightly as modern machine-made tartan. The cloth is also
not as tightly woven. Homespun tartan will pleat by hand easily, but
will not develop a sharp edge. Small snags, pulls, holes and other
assorted blemishes are common. Because it is hand woven, these flaws
are a natural part of it's character. Homespun is approximately a
10/11 oz. fabric, but feels thicker due to it's looser weave.

NEW! Synthetic Blend Tartans!
Whether you are allergic to wool, or just want a great looking tartan
for cheap, a synthetic blend is a great way to go! Hard wearing,
washable, and cool to wear, to the untrained eye it is nearly indistinguishable
from expensive 100% wool tartan. While the weave is not as authentic
as Homespun tartan, many people appreciate the crisp look of the
modern tartan fabrics in an Earasaid. With about about 100 tartans
available to choose from, it's the most affordable option for many
tartans.
