Sharp looking pin cousin,

Indigo might be a better fit for the "period" flavor of the tartan, at least for the southern sept of Carolina. That was probably the first big cash crop of the low country.

I'm looking for a Palmetto for my (future) Carolina.

We should make a sticky listing where we can find particular styles of pins. While it's a ways off due to financial constraints, when I am able to afford a Carolina, I definitely want a Palmetto & Gorget pin for it....
