    Name that Tartan

    Quick Quiz:

    Is this the Royal Stewart tartan, or the new "Tilted Kilt" corporate tartan? You decide!

    Well Matt, it's new to me and clearly has RS as its starting point but to my mind reducing the B and G to two threads whilst keeping the proportions of the other colours per the norm I'd have to go with either a Trade error of a new Corporate.

    Cancel last. I've just got the details through from STR. Not sure that I'd have accepted that on the basis that it's highly likely that there's some other RS varation around that this 'new' sett might be confused with.

    I'm no expert, nor even close, but for Royal Stewart even to my eye the proportions look off. So, before even reading the others I'd vote NOT Royal Stewart....

    kinda odd that they wouldn't just o.the distance and make their own tartan??
