I am somewhat new to the whole tartan scene, and have a couple of related questions. I gather mills and makers have designed there own "fashion" or generic tartans like Nightstalker or Pride of Scotland (I recognize that mills inventing new tartans is not really a modern phenomena), anyway when people ask you what clan's tartan that is, what do you say to them?
Why are some older tartans like Stewart or Black Watch universal? (Not trying to stir up controversy, if Stewart's not a good example pick another name, just want to learn.)
Lastly, is there a master list online of the non-clan affiliated tartans (other than the district list)?
Best regards,
Jake
