    Actually, that one's a Stewart Hunting.

    This also works VERY well when you're doing a 5 yard kilt and need to "cheat the sett" to make the back of the kilt look nice.

    Thanks Rocky - I can never keep them straight! I need to get better at reading tartans. I have them both, and I always forget which is which. One has the single yellow and the other the double. Oh sure, there are some other differences, but I don't remember.

    Maybe I should label each tartan, as I am sure that I have told some people wrong, when they asked!
