Each letter is a colour and each number a count of threads. The slashes mark the pivots: the pattern runs to the end, then reverses back on itself.

Colours

  • DB — Dark Blue
  • CW — Clear
  • R — Red
  • K — Black
  • DG — Dark Green

Shades follow the Register's palette for this entry. Woven cloth varies by mill and by colourway.

Get the kilt

When you order a kilt, ask for the tartan by its full name — for example “MacFarlane Dress” — and say which colourway you want. “Modern” is dark and strong, “ancient” is lighter, “weathered” is muted. The sett is the same in each.

We are choosing retailers we trust and will list them here soon.

Wear the colours

Our own MacFarlane range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
