Gutcher	Folklore: All Dressed In Yellow? (30)	RE: a question for folklorists-All Dressed In Yellow?	22 Oct 12
Yellow may have been easily produced from the litchen corklit but the litchen was hard to gather in S.W. Scotland and elsewhere as it only grew on mountain tops. the best of these for the purpose being described in the local rhyme:-- "The Slock,Milquachar and Craigneen, The Breeshie and Craignaw, The five best hills for corklit, That e"re the Star wife saw." The Star was an outby sheep farm situated around fifteen miles from the nearest clachan.
