    So Leckie has a green/red ground with two blue stripes in the red, but what are the two stripes in the green? They look white in one, and I can't tell which colour in the other.
    I think it's much more likely they were derived from the Lennox tartan. The crimson outerchecks on the green and the two sets of double-stripes give it away. The only other tartans that I know to employ this scarlet/crimson effect are Macnab and the original, correctly-woven Rose tartans.
