Summary
Description Antigonish blanket tartan with total border selvedge, corner.png |
English:
This is a mockup of the bottom right corner of a blanket (not of the white-heavy "arisaid" type), with a
total border
selvedge of another sett running around its entire circumference. (The blanket was discovered in Antigonish Co., Nova Scotia, Canada, but probably dates to Scotland c. 1780s.) This corner just shows the red-heavy border pattern going around from the right side to the bottom. This is
not
just a full-sett image and
cannot
tile horizontally or vertically. It was produced for illustrating a specific article. I'm not providing the thread count (actually thread count
s
plural – there would be a different one for the central pattern and the border pattern), as this is just my own eyeball estimation of what the thread count would be, from a photo of the original artifact cloth. I'm also not providing separate images of the central and border patterns, since there's probably little use for them. You can see the original at: MacDonald, Peter Eslea; "Two Plaids from Antigonish County, Nova Scotia", 2014

I'm crediting Peter Eslea MacDonald (of the Scottish Tartans Authority) with this image, since he took the photos and did the analysis; all I did is digitally "sketch" from his work.
