    Question Help identify this tartan.

    Will you help me identify this tartan?
    It is wool with a nice mediumweight to it. Tightly woven.
    Sett is 6+3/4 inches.

    Thanks!

    Where'd you score the cloth? Guessing it may be a fashion tartan/plaid if it came from a fabric shop or a fabric dept.

    If you got it from Hancock's the chances are near certain that its a fashion tartan. Enjoy the Mein Red and make up a great story for when people ask you about it.

    (Stand down, Yes, I know, Hancock's also stocks some of the easily identifiable actual tartans...just saying if its one you don't recognize there then its pretty certain its a fashion tartan/plaid.)
