Yes, that's it, Bradley, "Brittany Walking" or "Randonnée Bretonne". It is scheduled for delivery around 14th July but, since the "Breton National arrived a week earlier than scheduled, I am hoping I''l get that second kilt a week early also! I agree, it IS a beautiful tartan: basically browns, muted red, beige and thin stripes of yellow and blue - earthy and, as you say, "warm".

Congrats with yet another beautiful kilt.
Nice to see it together with the first MRK III sporran sten Rune and I made. Didn't it have antler on all drawstrings ?

Yes, David, it did! I have to confess (on bended knee if you insist) that I recently removed the lower pairs of antler pieces on both the black and the brown sporrans. I am afraid I have become too much aware of all those lovely dangly bits crashing about as I walk - it was just a little bit too much for my sensitivities!! I removed the lower pair on the brown sporran as an experiment, and was so much happier with the result that I did the same, only last week, to the black one. Fear not! I have kept the antler sections and they can easily be reinstated if I should change my mind again!

Have I committed an unforgiveable sin? If so, you must dish out a suitable pennance.

No Hamish . How could I find a way to punish such a gentleman...( Hang on. I could hide your tripod when on my next vist

What you do with your sporran is up to you . It just caught my eye in the photo. ( I'm a hopless case the first thing I look for is the sporran in any kilted photo :rolleyes: )
