I am not sure whether there is an official diocesan tartan or papal tartan. I have not seen any of the clergy wearing kilts - but it is freezing cold at present, and something a little warmer is called for!

Inverness Kilt Maker
Just down the road from St Mary's Catholic Church we have the Scottish Kilt-maker Shop and Visitor Centre.
I am not sure whether there is an official diocesan tartan or papal tartan. I have not seen any of the clergy wearing kilts - but it is freezing cold at present, and something a little warmer is called for!

The clergy do indeed have their own tartan, if you would like more information on kilts, please visit my site at http://www.your-kilt.com

Thank you, David, for directing me to your site - it is well worth a visit. It always amazes me how much information is available over the internet!
ReplyDeleteI tried to find information on your site concerning the clerical tartan, but couldn't find any. Is there any possibility of being more specific? I would like to feature the tartan on my blog.
I am posting a photo of an unknown (to me) clergyman in a kilt on my blog tomorrow - perhaps you could comment on whether he is in fact wearing the clergy tartan.
This used to be Hector Russell, I think. I used to spend much time in this area, near Whitebridge. I have very happy memories of the chapel at Stratherrick and of visiting Sister Petra Clare to collect the icon she wrote for me.
