9. MacGregor Hunting Glengyle Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 1285. Earliest known date: 1960 This is the usual MacGregor sett but with a darker crimson background colour. The story goes that Alasdair MacGregor of Cardney wanted to make tartan from the wool of his own sheep. His initial dyeing attempt produced a shocking pink colour, so he dyed the wool a second time to get this dark crimson colour. He liked the result so much that he had a bolt of cloth woven and the Cardney MacGregors have worn it ever since. The addition of the term 'Hunting' to the name is, apparently a commercial attribution.
