Pretending to be Scottish

I told my roommate that I thought it was appropriate to speak in a Scottish accent when weaving plaid.  She laughed at me a little for it.  Of course, I think she was also laughing at the accent in which I was speaking.  Whatever it was, I am fairly sure that it wasn't Scottish....

I have not gotten around to weaving true tartan, anyway, only some plaid of my own imagination.  Once I get around to actually weaving like a Scot, then I should look into learning a real Scottish accent.

I bring this story and explanation up because I have just finished another set of dishtowels.  Tartan or not, the plaid is cute and I love the dishtowels I have just finished.  Think about it:  horizontal stripes are meshed with vertical stripes, and suddenly plaid is growing before your eyes.  How cool is that?

I am totally weaving a wool plaid blanket someday.  Then I can wrap myself in plaid and drink tea.
