This is the saltire windsock I bought to fly on a lightweight fiberglass pole over our booth and the sheep pen at the Celtic Festival. A saltire, or Saint Andrew's Cross, is a heraldic symbol in the form of a diagonal cross or letter ex (x). Saint Andrew is said to have been martyred on such a cross. It appears in numerous flags, including those of Scotland and Jamaica, and other coats of arms and seals. The Saltire is featured in the Maxwell Coat of arms.
