What's this tartan? Monday morning fun

Here, as they say, is one I made earlier. A hand dyed silk shawl. Anyone want to guess the tartan. Matt you're not allowed to play for obvious reasons.

Lochaber?

Good guess. Sort of but not quite.

It's not "Wilsons Old Tartan Lochaber" is it STA 6628?

Based on the thread codes that's the closest I could find in a search, but I'm very new at this.

No, but the answer's there

It's Lochaber Cameron, details here:

Although the STA color strip shows that the azure line/lines in the blue field alternate between single broad and double narrow, making the full sett quite wide...

Simple really. Lochaber Cameron or as Wilsons first called it c1820 a new pattern for T. Logan. Logan was probably one of their principal customers.

Well done David. Want to try another one?

Congrats, neighbor, for being quick on the draw.

Sure.

I was a bit thrown off at first because the STA threadcount doesn't use azure as a color (i.e. BBBBRK... instead of the expected ABABRK...)
