Notes
This tartan was designed for Lochalsh, Scotland, and was inspired by both the area’s history and natural surroundings. The colours are intended to reflect Lochalsh’s physical attributes: green to depict its blanketing forests; blue reflecting the areas clear Lochs and burns and black symbolising long dark winters. The sett is a blend of the tartans of three major clans in the area: Clan Matheson makes the base pattern; a single red stripe on a blue background for Clan MacKenzie; two smaller red checks for Clan MacRae. The three different coloured stripes through the tartan are intended to represent the three Lochs; Loch Alsh, Loch Duich and Loch Long.
