We note a 1901 pattern for a Higland kilt oit fit. This ine ws for a 3-4 year old boy. This would have been an expensive garment even if sewed at home and would hve meant lot of wotk. Kilt suits were more common fo younger boys, but after the turn -of--the 20th cehtury were going out of style. We are not sure who profuced the pttern. It was datd 1901/ The as copy read, "1 Scottish Dress for Boy 3-4 Years Pattern. 24 Chest - 22 Waist only.
