Thanks for doing this AMA - it's great to hear about one of my favourite topics! A few weaving questions here: Is there a maximum number of colours you can design in a tartan? When you say 'Hand crafted tartan', do you mean that some production cloth is on hand-looms? What type of looms does your mill use (no worries if you don't want to say because of business in-confidence)? Thanks!

Thanks for your reply! I checked out the video https://youtu.be/2W9UBVjx_QQ - gorgeous looms! And I love the process - it's so good to see so much care is taken making the cloth. I have a soft-spot for old Hattersleys - I grew up around a couple (different to yours tho) but never saw them going (Australia, so not many here anyway). Well done for continuing such a great tradition!
