In Tartan weaving there is a warp (the threads running the length of the cloth)
and the weft ( the threads running across the cloth). To achieve the distinctive
Tartan pattern the colours and number of threads in the warp and weft must be
specified to the weaver. Each Tartan has a 'sett' which describes the weaving
pattern i.e. each colour is specified with the number of threads that will appear
on the 'warp' and 'weft'.
The House of Tartan unique Tartan Finder software enables these weaving
instruction to be given to the weaver. So by using the Clan Connections on
our Web Site to discover your Tartan, we can generate the weaving
instructions required for your individual Tartan production run.
