Notes:
This tartan dates to at least 1950 and a fragment of cloth in the West Highland Museum in Fort William referred to as a 'Cargill frag.' A swatch of this - which he wove - is in Peter MacDonald's collection. It is thought that the fragment referred to was found in Glencoe. It was automatically attributed to the the MacDonalds.
