Description
The book Make your own medieval clothing - Headwear for men and women contains patterns for creating medieval headwear for men and women, from peasants and townspeople to nobility.
The book is in English.
Veil, circlet, coif, bonnet, cap or hood? To give an authentic portrayal of a medieval character, you will need an appropriate period headdress. This carefully researched and richly illustrated book offers a wide variety of head coverings through the ages.
The authors present exemplary historical sources which form the foundation for their interpretations and also give advice on how to wear the headdresses. The sources for the sewing instructions range from early medieval pictures found in the Maciejowski Bible and the Codex Manesse to High Middle Ages archaeological findings from London and late Middle Ages findings from Kempten in the Allgäu, Germany.
The book includes an introduction to the necessary working techniques. Clear and easily comprehensible instructions and pictures lead you through the work process. Even a layman can thus create patterns, sew different seam types and neaten cut edges. A section on materials ensures that you will be able to choose the right fabrics and colours.
