    St. Colm Cille tartan

    I think I remember seeing a st. Colm Cille/Columba kilt on the forum a while back which was primarily blue in colour.

    Does anyone remember it or have said kilt? I was looking for it today, but the tartans I have found seem a lot more faded green with blue, and IMO are not as nice as I remember seeing.

    Maybe I've gotten it confused with another tartan, but I'm nearly sure the one I saw had a lot more blue in it.

    Matt Newsome and (Ern) Mael Colum both had one at one time. I think Matt's has been sold.

    Cordially,

    Ah thanks. I think it was the st.ninians I was getting confused with.

    I like the look of the st.columba one, and it's got a lot of connection to my home town of Derry.
