Woman's Anglo Saxon dress
This dress is
entirely hand sewn. The underdress is linen, the overdress is woolen. The belt is tablet wowen in linen. Maybe it should not
be wrapped twice around the waist, but I like it this way very
much.
The pouch is of wool, with an embroidered beast from the Bayeaux
tapestry (woolen threads in natural colors and hibiscus).
The knives (one large and one small for eating) are replicas of a
found from ca 12th century so they may not be period, but I like
to wear them with the outfit, though.
