    This sett is based on Logan's "Sutherland" tartan. Various thread counts appear in Wilson's pattern books of roughly the same proportions. Documents show that this was the tartan appointed for the Highland Companies in 1725 and later for the Black Watch in 1739. Slightly different count from the 42nd Regiment.

     

    This tartan dates to 1725.
