To all: Are there any celebrations going on for Sir Walter Scott's birthday on the 15th? Our library is having a ceilidh which they publicize as "authentic" with dancing, readings, pipers, etc. IT'S DRY!

Does anyone know of a good book about early (1600-@1760) weaving in Scotland? Also, does anyone know what "blue goods" (textile) are? My gr gr gr grandfather from Kilmarnock established both a weaving mill and blue goods weavers (I think there may have been a special license required as there was in Europe) in Maryland.
