Well, Stormy Kromer fans, it’s time for another edition of naming plaids. These posts always garner so many great responses and we love hearing your creative ideas.

So without further ado, let’s get right down to business. As usual, we’re just showing the plaids but not revealing which products they will be used in.

You can see that these two are the same basic pattern, just in different colorways. One with a light charcoal base, one with olive.

This one stands on its own. Green background with pinks, purples and teals.

Well, what do you think? Let the creativity begin!!

      I’m not even going to try because I vote for all three of Bill Ayars’ names. They’re great! And I REALLY hope you make “Lavender Lilac Sweet Pea” and “Frost” into ladies’ flannel shirts. Please.

    The green one is the coolest and should clearly be called ‘hiker plaid’.

  23. Spiced Cider, Autumn Riverbank or Wilderness Road for the olive plaid.

    Blue Adventurine for the charcoal and blue. Blue Adventurine is a stone – a powerful mental healer that increases vitality and a positive outlook. This stone assists in self-discipline and developing inner strength.
