Scottish fabric is a term used to describe two distinct types of cloth: tweed and TARTAN. Tweed is a rough, unfinished woolen fabric, usually woven in a plain weave and characterized by its flecked or mottled appearance. TARTAN is a patterned cloth consisting of criss-crossed horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colors. Both tweed and TARTAN are traditionally associated with Scotland and are popularly used in clothing and accessories.
