Who weaves affordable tartan in cotton or polyvicose?

Marton Mills in England weaves 11 oz. polyester-viscose. I believe they weave cotton as well. Unfortunately, their website (http://www.martonmills.com)doesn't seem to work anymore!

It seems to work for me, the layout is a little odd though.
Thanks, I'm looking into it right now.

How weird is that? It still doesn't work for me!

The page pulls up for me, perhaps try a different browser. Some pages will not work with some browsers, or you may need to adjust your browswer settings

I tried both Firefox and IE and looked at the setting for both. Who knows? It used to work.

Hmm..I use Firefox, it works for me..odd.

If you want Marton Mills' poly-viscose list, select Schoolwear> Balmoral. you should be able to order directly, or through Scotweb, Celtic Croft and some of our other sponsors. I can never remember who retails the PV versus wool.

I usually look at the MM Web site with Firefox; it may be a difference of browsers, anti-virus settings, firewalls, ...
