I was surfing through some of the locked threads and found the link to the bear tartan and I was wondering if it's symetrical or not? Which made me think of many more questions...
Are there many non symetrical tartans out there?
Does it make the tartan harder to pleat if it doesn't repeat in quite the usual way?
Will those "make your own" tartan software programs support non symetrical patterns?

I have no idea why the though of an asymetrical tartan appeals so much but I'd love to know more about them. I'm hoping Matt will chime in here.
thanks guys,

Renee
