For the life of me, I cannot remember the name of a classic check pattern.

IIRC, it's a green/yellow field, with reddish and tan-ish rectangular check pattern. The check squares are taller than they are wide. I think it has a classic Scottish name.

It's not POW, glen plaid or Shepherd's check.

Halp, plz.

Thanks BB.



Duddingston? Name doesn't sound familiar, but this check sure looks like what I was thinking of. Is there another name for this?
