    I have some knit wool ties from House of Cheviot that I like to wear with my tweed jackets in the fall and winter (and sometimes spring and summer!).



    I also have a few plain colored woven wool ties (all Lochcarron made, I think) that tend to get a lot of wear with my kilts. A light blue one, a brown, and a light red that goes well with some of my weathered tartans.

    Just a quick observation.

    Non-tartan wool ties are getting harder and harder to find in the UK.

    In a specialist gentleman's outfitter, certainly. Anywhere else, not to be found.

    I wear a tie to work every day. Whether kilted or not, as long as the colors don't violently clash, I spend about 3.5 microseconds deciding what tie to wear.

    Just FYI, I brought in some wool knit House of Cheviot neck ties a couple of years back but they did not really take off. I have what limited stock I still have on hand listed for sale here.
