Thanks, McMurdo! I would have had no inkling to look there. In fact, I didn't even realize that the Scottish Register of Tartans existed! I'm going to add that one to my book marks along with the STA and the Scottish Tartan Museum.

We're working Scarborough Fair again this year and I'm wearing a kilt this year instead of my velvet tights. I made a phillabeg last year out of some unknown (probably some kind of acrylic or acrylic blend) maroon material and it worked out okay, but I wanted something a little more distinctive this year, which I think the Stewart Black tartan is. I think I may also try to find about 4 yards of a gray or brown wool tweed to wear as a great kilt on those chilly days.
