Happy St. Patrick's Day and an Irish tartan

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

There are so many beautiful Irish tartans. I especially like the ones woven by House of Edgar.

Here's a kilt-skirt in the County Cork tartan....

Can't see the tartan?

Really? It's showing OK for me. A lovely tartan, BTW.

Working fine now. Thanks for the post.

I love it, one of my favorite Irish tartans!

Because I've not yet determined if my great-great Grand-Daddy Dyer was Scottish or Irish (I'm very certain he was at least one or the other), I plan to get a second Irish tartan kilt someday (I'm wearing my Irish National today, naturally). My understanding is the Dyers (O Duibhir/Dwyer/Dwier/Etc.) primarily originated or were concentrated in Tipperary, so a Tipperary tartan it will likely be.

Happy St. Pat's To All My Kilted Brethren (And Kilted Skirt-ed Sisters)! Sláinte!

Here's another one, County Roscommon....



I pleated it to the gold stripe....



The idea was to have the rust color flash from behind the pleats when the man walked...
