    Thumbs up

    Nice work! I am a big fan of a green undercheck, especially ancient and/or weathered hues. I think your creation is very handsome in that the mild tone of the yellow stripe (3 threads?) is visually harmonious with the 'lovatey' green undercheck, while the cool blue and woodsy brown stripes provide a tasteful contrast in the overcheck. If I were not aware this was a recent creation, I would think this an ancient tartan. Again, very nice work - would very much like to see it woven.

    A subtle coloured sett and I like it very much, and would love to see it made up in a knife pleated kilt... to stripe or to sett. I'm sure it would look good!

    Nice!

    I too like it. Very nice colors, and the perfect level of complexity in the sett for my tastes. I am not a kilt maker, so can't speak to any challenges that it may present from that perspective. It looks like a very thoughtful design.

    Good work!
