Houndstooth pattern or pied-de-poule

Houndstooth, also known as “shepherd's check” is a classic pattern that coined its name after it's resemblance to the shape of a dog's tooth. ... Worn as an outer garment by shepherds, houndstooth originated in wool cloth from the Scottish lowlands dating back to the 19th century.

Who invented the houndstooth pattern?
Beardsall is a hat designer, from England, and so it is doubtful if this is his own research. The black and white abstract checkerboard pattern with a vague resemblance to a chicken-foot print -- known in French as the pied de poule and in English as houndstooth -- first appeared in the 1800s in the Scottish lowlands.
