Between between 1541 and 1736, numerous people were persecuted under various Witchcraft Acts in both England and Scotland. In 1603 James VI passed Scotland’s Act against Conjuration and Witchcraft. Shakespeare wrote MacBeth in 1606 and the inclusion of The Weird Sisters in the play was heavily influenced by these events.Inspired by Stratford Festival's 2016 production of William Shakespeare's Macbeth, this tartan was created to coincide with worldwide celebrations of the playwright's enduring legacy, 400 years after his death in 1616.

RED: The blood that symbolises guilt that cannot be washed clean

BLACK: The darkness of night

GREY: The literal and moral fog of the uncanny world of MacBeth
