    I'm so sorry to hear about your wife. It's a wonderful idea that you have to wear a pink kilt.

    One of my favorite pink tartans is the Dress Rose Nisbet. It makes up into a beautiful kilt and is available as a stock tartan from D.C. Dalgliesh in 11-12 oz weight.

    All the suggestions so far are very nice, but I don't think that they're pink enough to represent the pink colour of the breast cancer campaign.

    Check out http://www.bentneedledesigns.net/Fabric.html
    Look for:
    Dress Ailsa Pink
    Dress Aviemore
    Dress Magenta Fyvie
    Dress Pink Kyle
    Dress Cherry Gigha
    Dress Pink Sunnart
    Dress Sapphire Sunnart
    Dress Magenta Shiel
    Dress Cherry Torridon

    A Canadian supplier with many of the above tartans, plus others.

    And this site:
    http://www.tartantown.com/list1_dress_thumbs.html
    Look for:
    Special Dress Fuchsia Menzies
    Special Dress Raspberry Menzies
    Dress Raspberry Scott

    Dress Oliver is also a tartan with a good amount of pinkish red, but it's fairly balanced with blue.

    I am also sorry to hear of the diagnoses. Best wishes to your wife and I hope that she can find a tartan which she can wear.
