Anybody know what this is?



The red is actually a bit more "red" and less "orange" in person, than the photo indicates. This is the tartan I got to make Duncan Lawrence's kilt out of.

If what appears to be black in the photo were in fact blue, I would say it is the Chisholm tartan. Not the one normally sold under that name today, mind you, but the older one which resembles a MacIntosh tartan, recorded here:

That will make a braw kilt for the wee lad Alan. Well done!

Matt, you're a whiz. Spot on!

It looks like a "Boyd" tartan to me (a descendent). Check out the tartan finder here: http://www.tartanonline.com/tartanon...artan_a_c.html

Quite right Matt. The black may actually be dark blue which was the original Wilsons' shade (below) rather than the light blue shown in the STR link.
