My kilt is made from the Cornish Hunting tartan. I very much like the tartan. The Cornish National has a bit too much yellow for my personal preference, but then again that is why they make the "hunting" variations to offer more options within a particular district/clan base.

My family is from St. Ives and move to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in the 1880s. They, too, were tin miners and copper mines were abundant in the Upper Peninsula.
