Now that is a wise suggestion! How true.
A number of years ago I got full tartan hose to match one of my kilts, and also bought a couple yards of tartan and fringed it myself to make a fly plaid.
As you say, the tartan hose have been worn on a fairly regular basis, while the plaid mostly sits in the closet.
