Nuns live under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience so it's not uncommon for us to see them always prim and proper. As someone who went to a Catholic school, I'd often see them with their hands tucked neatly in their habits.

Fabric is woven in the UK. Earasaid handmade in the U.S.A. (in house). Just like the earasaid (arasaid) worn in OUTLANDER: The Series! This is the same 100% premium wool tartan fabric, woven by the same weaver in the U.K., as the tartan used in the making of OUTLANDER: The Series. The OUTLANDER tartans are woven as a hopsack plain weave with a wash only to give it that natural look. Your Earasaid is 12oz premium wool and it is 60" wide with a kilting selvage with nicely fringed finish. Now you can wear your very own OUTLANDER earasaid! The earasaid (aka erasaid or arisaid) is essentially the women's version of the greatkilt. 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. Pleating instructions are included with each earasaid. The earasaid has less fabric in it than a great kilt. Why? Because the earasaid generally doesn't wrap completely around the front like a greatkilt, and it has less pleats. An earasaid usually has just a few large pleats in the back; sometimes even just bunched-up instead of pleated. I say "generally" and "usually" because the earasaid is so very versatile, you can wear it however you want. Sizing: We make three different sizes of earasaid (2.5 yd, 3 yd, and 4 yd). There are two basic ways you can choose to wear an earasaid. Which size you choose depends on your waist size, and how you want to wear your earasaid. Method #1: The earasaid will be worn from knee to mid-calf length (maximum of about 27" long). You should be able to bring fabric over one shoulder or both, and brooch it in front. You should have plenty of pleats, and enough fabric meet in the front, or overlap a bit if you want it to. A 2.5 yard earasaid will fit up to about a 34 inch waist, a 3 yard earasaid will fit up to about a 40 inch waist, and a 4 yard earasaid will fit 40+ inch waist sizes. Earasaid Pleating Method 1 Method #2: The earasaid will be worn floor length. You should be able to bring fabric up over your head if you want to, and brooch it like a hooded cloak. Worn this way you'll be limited by the width of the fabric. You can make your earasaid fit almost any waist size, but you'll have only a few pleats, and just enough fabric meet in the front (maybe). This method works best with a 2.5 yd earasaid. You can make it work a 3 or (maybe) 4 yard earasaid, but you end up with too much fabric to deal with above your head and shoulders. Earasaid Pleating Method 2 Pleating instructions are included with each earasaid (Earasaid Instructions.PDF). Because it's so versatile, we would encourage you to pleat it yourself each time you wear it. That way you can change the length and style or number of pleats any time you want to. However, we can pleat it for you and stitch everything into place. This makes it very easy to wear, but you'll need to decide on a length and stick with it. If you're interested, please give us a call to add cheater pleats to your earasaid. Please allow an extra 2-3 weeks for delivery with this option.
