    Hmm, color scheme for a Jewish Tartan. White for the lamb's wool of traditional sacrifices, black for the captivity in Egypt and the Holocaust, red for the blood on the door posts at passover, brown for the sands of the desert wilderness they wandered in for 40 years, and gold for the menorah at Chanukah?

    A quick trip to House of Tartan's interactive weaver and I came up with this:
    Edit- The wide red stripe should be brown!

    Hey, I got the clickable thing right. DISCLAIMER: I am not an expert tartan designer nor expert on Jewish history and culture. The colors selected were just what immediately sprang to mind.
