Notes:

This sett was apparently taken by James Watret of Illinois from a child’s kilt passed down by a great grandfather who lived in the early nineteenth century. Warp and weft are different and both are non-repeating i.e. it is an asymmetrical tartan.
This count is taken from the National Archives Register which doesn’t show different warp & weft so this version shown here is unreliable.
