    Thanks!

    I picked up a kilt length of Copper Haze tartan from Marton Mills yesterday. I'll probably start the kilt on Sunday.

    This is a very nice tartan. I look forward to seeing the finished product!

    A closer look shows that indeed Copper Haze is a variant of the symmetrical Buchanan sett.

    The biggest difference was changing one of the yellow stripes to green, that double yellow stripe being so distinctive of Buchanan.

    If I were a Buchanan I would order a kilt in it right away! It's beautiful.

    MacCarthy Tartan - Jura 16oz Marton Mills
    Hello,

    Marton Mills also weave the MacCarthy Jura 16oz Heavyweight. It is worth noting MacCarthy Old is also woven at clan.com, Edinburgh, UK. It's a good sign English Mills are starting to weave the rarer tartans. Yorkshire appears to be a good place to weave tartan!

    Can you please post a few pictures of your kilt in the Copper haze tartan? Thanks!

    I've tried a couple times. Can't seem to upload photos anymore. Not sure what's going on.
