Blue Tartan.

-
Hello dears! Today I did small research about "TARTAN". As Wikipedia says - it is a pattern consisting of criss-crossed horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colours.  There are about 6000 types of tartan, and even Scotish register of tartan exists. :-) Tartan has a very long history. Firstly it was applied on woven wool but now it is used widely, on other materials too. Every colour has its letter for coding (e.g. W-white, K-Black, N-grey). Also, special code of pattern shall include number of woven lines. I found the code for the pattern of my tartan shirt and derived its name - it is  Blue Royal Tartan!!! . You may try too/ Just put basic colours of your tartan at the graph search at   http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/, and you can see title of your tartan! Here we GO! )

Привет-привет! Я сегодня провела небольшое исследование о том что такое "ТАРТАН".  В словаре "Википедия" говорится о том что это - " орнамент, образованный саржевым переплетением нитей, заранее окрашенных в разные цвета, в результате чего образуется клетчатый узор, состоящий из горизонтальных и вертикальных полос, а также прямоугольных областей, заполненных диагональными полосками". Существует около 6000 видов тартана., и Шотландский Реестр Тартанов :-) Тартан имеет длинную историю.  Сначала он применялся на шерстяной ткани именуемой "шотландка", но сейчас используется широко, также и на других тканях. Каждый цвет имеет свою букву для кодировки (например. W - белый, K-черный, N- серый). Также, особый код должен включать количество цветных полос. Я нашла код рисунка моей клетчатой рубашки - и это оказался Королевский Голубой Тартан!!! Вы можете найти свой. Просто введите название своих цветов в графе search на сайте   http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/., и Вы увидите название своего рисунка! )))
