MacNaughton tartan
Clan tartan of Clan MacNaughton.
The Register records this sett without a date. It says the single azure stripe is thought to be an error, and that Wilson's 1847 pattern book lists it as a dress sett, which is why some Grahams use it in that way.
Thread count
A/4 K4 R54 A24 K24 G54 R54 K4 A/4Each 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.

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 “MacNaughton” — 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 MacNaughton range is on its way: the name, the tartan and the motto on a heavyweight tee, a hoodie and a mug. About the shop.
