Newsome Box Pleat – St. Columba

[Mael Coluim]

I ordered this tartan as it was designed to commemorate the 1400th anniversary of the Saint’s death. My surname translates to follower of St. Columba and having re-enacted (2003) Columba’s Voyage from Ireland to Holy Island of Iona to establish his monastery in Scotland, well it was just had to have.
