Wool week... Day two
We're continuing our Wool Week celebration today with ANTA. We have three of their pure harris wool utility bags to give away. Today's question is:
Tartan and Scotland are intrinsically linked but in 1746 The Dress Act made wearing “Highland Dress" illegal. In which year was the act repealed?
To enter, please send your answer to assistant@selvedge.org
Good Luck! And congratulations to Sami Teasdale who won yesterday's Loopy Lapin competition.

Super competition- just the thing to cheer us all up! Well done Selvedge! Very nice prizes too….
July 1 1782 was when the Higland Dress Act was repealed.
Is the answer to your Scottish Dress Act question 1782?
Cheers
