Just something to think about.

I'm encouraged that you to put black guard stripes on both the yellow and red stripes. I find that this small addition makes a big difference in how good a tartan looks in the weathered color scheme.
Yes, I think the yellow lines are out, although I may check to see how it does pleating to one of them just so I can cover my bases with our committee. This is probably my number one choice for our tartan. The double yellow might have worked with a box-pleat, which is what I wear (until I get my Kinguissie later this month). But the band needs knife pleats, so I'm learning how to make it work.

Thanks! The guard stripes I've found really make it look cleaner and more pronounced. Oddly enough, I figured this out doing old style video game graphics.
