    When I opened up the fabric, I noticed that in the middle, the weaver did a repeat of the white stripe. So I think I can treat the cloth like a normal symetrical tartan. Am I right about this?
    Can I rip the cloth and make a join in the center back?

    I've worn a different variety of Campbell in a kilt (Cawdor), but have a fair amount of scarves and so forth in CoA. Never noticed that it was asymmetrical - it's fairly subtle. Good catch!
