    It was available through Ros Jone's website but it appears to be no longer active. Barb T had thought in an earlier thread that she may have passed on (speculation only).

    All proceeds from the sale of the tartan went to the Antarctic Trust. http://www.ukaht.org/shop.htm#Tartan They do not list just yardage being available but there is a contact link I am sure that they can answer questions concerning the availability.

    Here is the link to an earlier thread that Barb posted concerning this tartan:

    I emailed UKAHT last summer, and they said they would be happy to sell yardage for kilts. Just go to their site (http://www.ukaht.org/shop.htm) and send them an email! As far as I know, DC Dalgliesh does the weaving, and it's only available in 11-12 oz. Makes up into a nice lightweight kilt, though.

    Cheers,

    B

    Strange to think the Antarctic tartan is available only in medium weight. Know about global warming, but Antarctic is still a cold place, isn't?
