I love Gael Gisvold’s new tartan for many reasons. Celebrating Edward Bransfield’s discovery of Antarctica with the shades of the Antarctica land and seascape is such a cool idea. The colors are beautifully woven in to a fascinating story of this icy, harsh environment. My scarf is soft and warm. The colors match most everything that I own. Being Scotch Irish myself, I appreciate the interesting histories that so many tartans can tell.

Then learn the story of the Edward Bransfield Commemorative Tartan and the scarves offered here. I am the weaver who designed the tartan that honors Edward Bransfield, the Irishman who was the first to see, map and chart the 7th Continent.
