This is Douglas tartan with motif of Christina Young’s arisaidh plaid, (#1722) of 1726, superimposed on blue. Designed by Derek Young, Benderloch, Oban, 1992. Lochcarron sample dated January 1997. Sample in STA Johnston Collection.
The blue and green background colours are normally woven at twice the width shown here for a kilt tartan. The design retains the unusual purple – yellow – orange box check of the original blanket and changes only the ground colour to the traditional West Coast greens and blues. Sample in STA Dalgety Collection. Also sample in weathered colours.
