Yet Another Tartan to ID

[Cygnus]

Looking at the threadcount, though, doesn't the warrior only have three purple stripes rather than four as in this picture?

Don't think it's the one suggested, as that one looks more purple and white as opposed to the one in question looking to be in black, blue and pink. Also, as you mentioned Cygnus, your tartan has four bold blue stripes whilst the one suggested has three (purple) stripes. Unfortunately, I have no idea which one it might be, but will let you know if i cross paths with it..

That's a product of the pleating. Read them down rather than across and you'll get four.

That's what I mean, Xman - the tartan in the picture has four stripes while the Warrior tartan seems to only have three.

It's the four stripes that interest me, really, as that's what makes the tartan so similar to the MacQueen.

Ah, my mistake. I misinterpreted the small image size in the Marton Mills jpg as overlapping with four bold strips. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

The sett is the same as Gagetown (New Brunswick) but in that the single overstripe on the black was the same shade of blue as the larger blocks. A production variant perhaps?
