Well done on this article; it's always exciting to see good articles on obscure topics such as this one. --Treefox 15:56, 27 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source?

Just noticed that the thread count for the tartans i'ved checked in the article differ from the counts listed in Scotland's Forged Tartans, which is listed as a source for the article... so where did these thread comes come from?

[edit] Errors of internet tartans

A couple of the tartans based on the Black Watch have tricky thread counts that don't work well with tartan generators (the VS MacKenzie, VS Farquharson and VS Campbell), even on a couple websites they don't have the stripes right. Most of the digital Campbell of Argyll (the VS Campbell) tartans i've seen have the white and yellow stripes as A-B-B-A-A-B-B- and so on, when it should be A-B-A-B-A- and so on. Example: wrong right. The Vestiarium Scoticum article has them nailed down though, so just in case anyone noticed.--Celtus 08:37, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
