order 100% pure merino wool fabric, entirely handmade by me with my manual four-sided loom.
This fabric is perfect for Viking and Medieval re-enactors, because it has a typical structure (SAIA A DIAMANTE, BROKEN TWILL), documented by numerous archaeological finds in Europe, referable to the Iron Age, the Roman Age and the era of migrations.
It can be used to make clothes, capes, shawls, bands, pillows and everything that your imagination suggests.
The handmade making of this fabric takes a lot of time: the choice of yarn, the preparation of the frame, warping, weaving and finishing.
For this reason, the more meters you order, the less you spend. The fabric will be made especially for you, according to the colors and texture you want.
It takes me a couple of weeks to weave a whole drape, but in periods of greater work I could take up to three weeks.
Characteristics of the fabric:
Woven entirely by hand with my four-licci loom, here in Italy
Composition: 100% pure quality merino wool, spun in Italy
Colors: on order. I can use any color I want
Weft and warp: 8 threads/cm
Fabric width from selvedge to selvedge: 55 cm
Some ideas on using this fabric:
- with ONE METER you can sew two -three rectangular handbags, or make neckline and cuffs to be applied to your dress
- with TWO METERS you will have a wonderful shawl that will keep you warm on colder days (finishing with fringes is included in the price)
- with THREE METERS you can sew a Viking apron or a Skjoldehamn type hood
- with FOUR METERS you can sew a medieval male tunic
- with SIX METERS you can sew a long female dress
However, I advise you to calculate well how much fabric you need for the project you have in mind, before placing the order.
