A handwoven viking apron dress
I’ve wanted to weave my own apron dress fabric for some time, especially since it’s very difficult to get wool fabric in Australia that is suitable for reproductions. Now I’ve finally done it!
A Buttoned Liripipe Hood
This hood is a 14th Century woman’s hood, with a short buttoned cape, and a liripipe, like those depicted in various illuminations from the period.
This is a pretty long article! I originally wrote this as documentation when I entered the hood into an Arts and Sciences competition in 2019.
Grab a cup of tea, and possibly a small meal, because this could take a while to read. Enjoy!
