trying unusual colours
So... I saw some plaid place-mats in an interesting combination of colours I can't recall seeing used together in a tartan.
Five minutes on the ScotWeb tartan designer and I came up with this. The colours are striking. Are there any tartans out there like it?

Lochcarron's "Auld Scotland" comes to mind, though it is lighter in hue overall.

Richard, Here is one that is somewhat similar. It is called Stewart silk fragment

Interesting, that looks nothing like the original specimen.

@figheadair - Peter perhaps you are thinking of this colorway. This is called ancient while the other one I posted is call reproduction

I love that tartan! I made a kilt for myself in it.
I just did another version of the above, with less mustard. I don't know why, but the combination of those three colours really catches my eye.

@figheadair - Peter, if the 2 photos of the Stewart silk fragment I have posted are so far off the beam could you please post a picture of the proper tartan. I was only going by what appears on the Scottish Register of Tartans.

Nice looking
Hey Richard, you always seem to come up with very nice looking tartans. I, for one, like your latest creation. Now, what might you call it? Best to you, Den

Mr. MacDonald,
I too, would like to know the original colourway - considering I own a 4 YBP and matching waistcoat in this tartan:
D.C. Dalgliesh, their "Standard" pallet from years ago.
