Help with research for Lowland Scots
Greetings!
Working on trying to put together kit for the first time and wanting to do 1280-1300 Lowland Scot peasant garb since we can trace our lineage back to William Wallace. However, I am having great difficulty finding out what the Lowland Scots wore in this time period. I came across a lot of Irish (leine and brat) but hardly anything about the LLS. Everything is Highland from 1500 onward. I don't think the Scots wore an Irish style saffron-colored leine. Could be wrong?
I know about the plaid, which at this time was a piece of wool 30" wide and about 12ft long, usually solid or striped. Not sure how it was worn. And that they liked color.
Resources? Knowledge? Help?
It is 105F in Texas right now. Could I get away with not having the plaid? Or have a linen one?
