A classic slender style scarf, always perfect for when you are looking for just a little extra touch of something to add to your look for that day.  Loose around the neck or even threaded through as a belt, the slender scarf is that little bit of tartan that gives you more!

With this special pre-order, only a select quantity will be made in the ADORED ALIAM TARTAN design.  A design we had the absolute pleasure and honour of creating with Alan Cumming as a surprise gift for Miriam Margolyes when she visited our mill in the summer 2021.

    Fabric Design - The Official Aliam Tartan, a design we created with Alan Cumming during the summer of 2021, as a special surprise gift for Miriam Margolyes

    Weave Design - repeated throughout the fabric is the year the word REBEL

    My long waited for Maxi Kilt

    It took years of saving to be in a position to buy a Maxi Kilt. The goddesses were with me as when the time came to place an order, Prickly Thistle had partnered with another tartan weaver. The resulting Kilt is simply amazing, surpassing all my meagre expectations. The fabric falls beautifully and is soft to the feel. The cut and subsequent drape is flattering to even this older body. It fits in well with my other Prickly Thistle garments.

    Great quality

    I really love the shirt, colour is very nice. I used to work in a warehouse as quality control for curtain and upholstery fabrics and I really appreciate the great quality of the fabric of the shirt I bought, The shirt is a bit shorter than expected, but I still like it. When I received the parcel I was pleasantly surprised, it was like unpacking a present.
    I will definitely buy more items in the future.

    Terrifying terrific tartan

    When I saw an exhibition at the Design Museum of wartime inspired fabric covered in slogans I wondered where the textile designs of today are to deliver the climate crisis message (apart from slogan T-shirts) so when I heard of the climate tartan I knew it was just what I was looking for. I will be wearing an outfit made from it when I take part in Dorset’s COP. It is truly a work of art in itself and I will ensure I don’t waste any of it.
