🤍The #houndstooth pattern, also known as Border Tartan, is believed to have originated in the Scottish lowlands between 360 AD and 100 AC. 

 

🖤The name comes from the pattern’s jagged shape, which resembles a hound dog’s tooth.

 

🤍Shepherds originally wore the pattern as an outer garment for protection and camouflage in pastures.
