Historical Context
The Pringle Tartan boasts a rich heritage dating back to the 12th century during the reign of Alexander III of Scotland. It is named after the area near Galashiels and is historically linked to the Pringle family, who were prominent in the wool trade. In the 14th century, they served as squires to the Earls of Douglas. Notably, several Pringle women held the esteemed position of Prioresses at the Convent of Coldstream. This tartan is more than just a fabric; it embodies a legacy of craftsmanship and community.
