Tartan.jpg Here is a piece of our tartan.

In the spirit of Nathan's comments and from an historical perspective, I would have preferred to see at least some traditional type designs and weave. Colours like these could easily have been achieved in the 18th Century but the fashion was for brighter colours and in particular any shade of red (from pink to rust). Almost all tartan of that period was woven in a 2/2 twill as it's structurally stonger. This plain weave wouldn't take nearly as much punishment and certainly wouldn't keep one as warm.
