I agree, for some reason if I got a kilt with the MacDonald Dress tartan, I would constantly think I was wearing a winters scarf, as it has been commercially produced so much in hats, scarves, mittens, sweaters, shirts, flannel pajamas, and such. Like the Stewart, Campbell Blackwatch, and several others.
I think, because of Peter's comments I will go with MacDonald, the two older examples he depicted in his last post, depending upon how much it would cost to weave. Just love the simplicity, and colors of that tartan, little different than the Modern Dress Clanranald that I normally wear, that looks like so many others.
