I saw that this morning as well. I don't know why but tartans with large black fields generally leave me cold, and this one is no exception.

There was a licorice candy here in the US some decades ago called "Good 'n' Plenty". Black licorice bites in pink and white candy shells. Just sayin'...

Good n' Plenty is still plenty available (and plenty delicious).

There still is. Good 'n' Plenty is my favorite candy in the whole, wide world.

And I have to admit... it makes a welcome change from the ubiquitous Black Stewart.

EDIT:
Artificer and I crossed posts.

Doesn't do it for me. I places this firmly in the speculative sentimental rubbish pile. As for the colours rationale.......

At least it doesn't include blue for his face paint

This made me wince...while laughing aloud

Nope, this just isn't my cup of tea. Maybe I'm too much of a traditional type. There are so many very nice, balanced, tartans available already. I do not see the point of designing another tartan just 'cause the software is readily available and someone has some time to spare.
