Has anyone done any of these patterns? I think my Mom and I are going to mess around with 'em but I’d love to see some pictures of finished (or half way finished) pieces. http://www.usitt.org/tdt.index/extras/39-3chainmail.html
Take a look at my earlier post here, with comment about construction.
I have not attempted these yet - up to my eyeballs in knitted poultry at the moment. I might have to try a few pieces this summer… some of my friends are Ren Faire geeks and we often barter for reenactment gear that someone else has made. (Example: I knit or sew in exchange for someone making me a wooden chest or a chair).
If you get to it first, post pics…I’d love to see how this stuff drapes when constructed of various materials.
Neat! I’m ex-SCA myself. Decided to spend more time doing living history events - my eras changed to Rev and US Civ wars. I have to say, the corsets are more comfortable.
I still like going to Ren Faires - my favorite outfit was Sofi’s Stitches Avon Jupon. So versatile! You could make it up for any class with just a change of fabrics.
oooh, that dress is beautimous! I need to get out my ren faire stuff and see if it still fits, it’s been a couple years since I went, stupid school takes up waaaay too much of my free time. I’m going to get the nylon in the next few days, so hopefully I’ll some ‘in progress’ pictures soon.
