Purple Tartans?
I'm looking to get a purple kilt made; does any one have a list of some tartans? The only ones I know are:
--Masonic
--Passion of scotland
--heritage of scotland
--spirit of bannockburn
Some way to find an inventory would be great
Thanks!
Any infor on where to source these tartans would be appreciated. I intend to send them to lady chrystel for a commission

If you go to the Scottish Tartan Authority I believe you can sort by colour.

USA Kilt's Warrior tartan

Color doesn't show on my monitor as the true purple it is.

Marton Mills has a wool version of their polyviscose Warrior tartan. It's called Highland Mist, in the 16-ounce Jura range of tartans. You can find it from MM, clan.com, or your favorite kiltmaker.
Warrior's colors are purple, dark purple (almost black), and white. As far as my eye can tell from the screen, Highland Mist is identical.
