    Identifying this mystery tartan

    Does anyone know the name and origin of this particular tartan?

    It is not the MacLeod special dance tartan or MacLeod of California.

    Any thoughts?

    Possibly? Maybe? Perhaps? MacLeod "special dress"? I think I recall seeing something similar a while ago and I think that is what it was called. I can't say that I was impressed.

    Not so sure MacLeod Special Dress. Hmmm.
    It does look familiar.

    That's what I thought at first too, but on closer inspection the yellow and red lines are in opposite positions and the two black bars on the olive field are much thicker than the Special Dress Tartan. I think it was also call MacLeod special dance tartan by some of the highland dancing folks, a while back. The colour path is a stumper for me as well. Almost looks like a MacLeod of Harris weathered, yet in a dress tartan style.
