Yellow and blue tartan
At the Scottish Tartan Authority website http://www.tartansauthority.com/ in the upper right corner of the page appear a series of changing images of men and women wearing tartan. One of these, it looks like a 19th century portrait, depicts a yellow and blue tartan. I see no other colors in it. Can anyone identify it, does anyone know what the name of this tartan is?
I once saw in an old book a 19th Century image of Indian native troops, I've long forgotten the unit designation, wearing a yellowish and blue tartan. Anyone have an idea of what it might have been?
A yellow and blue tartan seems appropriate for wear here in Kansas, where there is so much golden wheat and blue sky. Can anyone suggest a tartan in colors that might seem Kansas-ish? I've toyed with the idea of designing my own. Any thoughts?
