Notes:

Erik Paulsen (STS Member) records that this pattern was produced around 1970 in Hallingdal – a secluded valley in central Norway. He states that in Hallingdal there is a living tradition of tartan but that he can find no concrete evidence of Scottish influence in the area. Sample donated to the STS by Elizabeth Speir.
