Pre-Jonesing--Got my Louisiana Tartan!

[Semiomniscient]

While not a Son of Louisiane, I do choose to call New Orleans home and didn't even know of the tartan.
I found the page describing it's (time-shifting) history, but am still very surprised at the lack of purple, green & gold in it.

What's the content and cost? I checked the St Andrew site but could find no information on purchasing it.

Merci beaucoup!

I am personally glad it's lacks the purple and gold together (despite the fact I'm an LSU grad)--I don't care for Mardi Gras and Louisiana has much more to offer otherwise. I think anyway that, like many other state tartans, it tries to capture the natural beauty of the state. Perhaps there could be a Mardi Gras tartan designed though. :-)

Of course, there's Mardi Gras and REAL Mardi Gras, the way the Cajuns celebrate it...

It's heavy weight wool. I sent you a PM with the Secretary of the SABR's email. He can give you all the particulars.
