    Link to the Celtic Croft's feilidh beags

    There you go, but you really just need a four or five yard length of single width tartan fabric and a belt. Those can be obtained from several of the sponsors advertizing on this forum.

    And whether it's even tartan is just a matter of taste. If you're concerned about historical accuracy but don't like (or don't feel you can afford) tartan you can use a solid color or tweed. "Earth tones" are best, for concealment and not showing dirt. But for historical accuracy you probably should use wool or linsey-woolsey; that was about all that was available to a poor highlander.
