List of Universal Tartans

To answer a couple of questions, the "New York City" tartan is the CITY tartan, not the state. The only 2 state tartans that are "stock" are California and Texas (Bluebonnet).

The Isle of Skye tartan is now available in PV from Pete at CCC and we JUST received our first shipment. Once it's added to the website, we WILL be adding a $15 surcharge on that tartan as the material is double the normal price of PV that we buy (due to special dyes used to weave it and the royalties paid to Rosemary, the designer). If you want to order it now though, you can call the order in.

I often joke and refer to the Isle of Skye tartan as "Hunting X Marks the Scot" ...

You mean the Isle of Skye is not the "Hunting X Marks the Scot"?

I also like the Arctic tartan.

Who makes an Isle of Skye kilt in PV? Or is only available in wool?

something similar called Bright Skye

Excellent point Rocky. There are some companies out there (some that we know of and some we don't)that are willing to sell material without paying the royalties to the designer on limited tartans like Isle of Skye. Personally I would not do business with someone willing to do this. If they are willing to cut a corner on something like that, what corner will they cut with me. IMHO dishonesty is still dishonesty and we've seen a few of these firms gone after in the news from the UK this past summer.

Kudos to both Rocky and Pete for going through the proper channels and getting the rights to sell this tartan.
