Thank you Emmett for the clarification of my clarification. Next time I see a shadow tartan I will check out the twist on the threads. I just knew that for whatever reason having to do with the thread that despite being the same color the texture and luster were distinctly different between the two "threads" making up the various stripes in the shadow tartans. See I am educable, and now ever so slightly more educated that just moments ago. Thanks.
