I wore wool pants once for a WWII reenactment once, and let me tell you I plowed through brambles, crawled through mud and thorns and leaves, my similarly clad husband got nearly CAUGHT ON FIRE and absolutely nothing made it through those pants. Didn't even get ticks. Pants still looked clean. I've been obsessed with finding wool clothes ever since.
So cool! I also love wool clothing. It usually takes extra care but is worth it to me. My favorite woolen item, if I could have only one? Underwear!! I have Icebreaker wool underwear and they're incredible. They almost always smell clean. They're very comfortable and a small miracle. Machine washable. I think they run small, btw, in case anyone tries them out.
Much more unfortunate then that wool yarn is more common than wool fabric, although, it's quite possible to make very tough woolen items from yarn as well.
Oh, I love this! I started wearing only long skirts during COVID and I don't think I will ever go back; in summer, billowing linen skirts are breezy, cool, and flattering. In winter, long wool skirts with thigh-high socks are far warmer than pants since your upper legs keep each other warm and the heat stays under the bulk. And let's talk about the reduced need to shave your legs between date nights! Unless you need to ride a bike or horse, try switching to skirts, ladies (or men!).
There is nothing more pleasant and satisfying than hand finishing. Nothing beats wool for comfort and durability. I really enjoyed this tutorial because your explanations are very clear. Thank you.
BEST garment sewing instruction I have ever seen! Your gores are perfect. Beautiful work and teaching. Well done! I’ve subscribed, and I’m imagining how lovely it would be to wear Viking garments every day.❤
Stunning work! Your seams on the gores look perfect! I purchased some wool fabric to make a viking wool dress like this, and these are great tips!! Thank you!
Very inspiring! It was nice also seeing the similitudes and differences with Ms Banner's "shenanigans" with a pirate shirt or two ;-) This is a dress I would consider trying. You explain very well and your voice is very soothing. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the clear demonstration and explanations on how to fell the gussets & gore's, as it's been the most fiddly long seams I've completed by hand recently.
I have never been able to use a thimble! I use too many different fingers. I've tried them all. Great video--love the red hair--nice to see all these redheads! I'm a cool redhead, not autumn or spring, which I fight. I look great in the greens, having green eyes too, but I look best in neon blue-violet and hot pink. But excellent tutorial--you're good at explaining WHY you do what you do. The background is also nice and wool--I wish we could get good wool here in the States. When I was in school in England, I came home with a suitcase full of wool. Thank you!
What's even more illogical is that a lot of wool in the world comes from either New Zealand or Australia. We have a saying here: 'Australia was built on the backs of the sheep.' And it's true. It's where our initial exporting started in a huge way when European settlers came to this country at the end of the 18th century. Yet I struggle to buy anything made with wool or decent wool fabric to sew (particularly at a decent price). I had to hunt down a woolen cardigan about five years ago. I only found one that I wanted. In the last two years we're starting to see a resurgence of clothing made with wool, but you still have to hunt it down online. And don't get me started on buying woolen fabric from a store. The cost is prohibitive. We still have LOADS of woolly sheep in our rural areas yet I'm guessing everything gets sent overseas!
Great tip on the darts! Thank you so much! I struggled so much making my apron dress! I'm now onto the shift and this is just so useful! I'm excited to see what you come up with next❤
This is great, thank you. I made a kirtle by basically winging it and really had no idea what I was doing. it sort of worked but I completely stuffed up the sleeves, but now I know how to sew it properly next time.
I really wish I found this before I used the same method to make a linen shift (by hand of course). I had no idea what I was doing or what order do it in - the sleeve gores in particular were a trial. This would've been such a help! Of course, I learned nothing from that project and next made a kirtle of coat-weight wool. Side-lacing on both sides to better accommodate my curves and provide that supportive tight fit for a d-cup chest with a total of 44 hand-sewn eyelets. Between the weight of the wool and the side-lacing I gave up on adding sleeves altogether. This looks much simpler - I look forward to watching more of your videos.
randomly found you while working on a woolen viking dress with your pattern from etsy! what a coincidence! :) thank you for the video, it's great!! I can't wait to make mine :)
"Once you start thimble, you never go back." Yes!!! 😍🙃☺️😂 I loved your video and look forward to part 2. Thank you for taking the time to make and share this video, I always wanted to learn how to make a wool dress but have not had a chance to work with wool. Do you have any suggestions or recommendations on working with wool (is lighter to work with) and how to clean it once the garment is finished? Thanks again ♡
This is true. I never bothered with a thimble for years. Then I started doing Victorian lampshades. Now I can't even do little things without a thimble
Fabulous I love it’s how it’s looks and really love the fabric to for the winter…. I’m going to start sewing it the way you sew the stitch by hand it’s looks more professional and taking my time too. it’s looks so beautiful I just fell in with the dress. I love the loose the dress…thank you for sharing this video… I hope you come out with a coat too! Or maybe I’ll turn my into a coat. Thank you you again 🤍🤍🤍
I used to sew wool long ago. Great video I can almost smell the wool when you are pressing. I don’t even know where I could buy wool anymore, almost no fabric stores. I am saving old wool coats for upcycling the fiber. Old scarves , blankets and coats seem to be my only source.
Even if you don't do reenactments go to reenactment fairs or "ren fair" if you're in the US. Even steampunk type conventions. It's where my partner gets all his woolen fabrics.
Also Google who sells wool fabric in your area. There is always on-line fabric stores, but then you lose the ability to feel the weight and texture of the fabric
When I was a teenager my sister and I each purchased an article of clothing. Her's was a plaid wool poncho and mine was a turtle neck jersey. She decided she didn't like it and I didn't like my top so we traded. In 5 days I will be 71 and I still have that poncho and I love it. It can be at any kind of weather including rain and it never soaks through. Best trade I ever made.
je tombe par hasard(?) sur votre chaine...il y a la traduction en francais (yess!)je regarde et ...ohhhh...magnifique...bien expliqué...bravo...du coup ...je m abonne ...je veux en voir plus...Merci pour le partage🙏💜. Amitiés de France.Violette.
I always forget the seam allowances when cutting and sewing together. chalking the stop & start points great idea for me - hopefully i remember for the next time i attempt sewing!
A tip my teacher gave me .... If you have a lot of hand-sewing to do, no matter how long you cut your thread, you still risk having it tangle or break. So...humor me here. We're going to do a mockup! Get some string, and a fat ol' yarn needle. Cut a piece of string 30 inches long. Fold it in half Now, instead of picking it up at that 15 inch mark, move your fingers down to one side of the mark, and refold at the 12 inch mark. Pick up your string by that fold at 12 inches, and... Thread Your Needle! Be careful not to pull the short end all the way through. You now have lots of thread on your needle, but it's tucked out of the way. You will have to adjust the length of your thread a bit more often than you are used to, but it's a good trade off for fewer tangles.
What do you think of lining it with muslin or cotton? It is such a beautiful dress❤ and seems a lining would take it up a notch to taylored. I can see embroidery in those gores, too😊. Teamwork. This is an amazing piece. My brain is seeing lots of ideas. Like silk or faux fur around wrists and neck. Do you have an idea for a hat?
Hi! Im trying to keep it as historicly accurate as possible so no lining and embroidery was not very common to use. But if you make one you can do as you want 😊
First time I've watched your videos. I'm impressed by your expertise, but I'm especially impressed by your badass fabric shears! Wow, those are some huge scissors! I couldn't read a hallmark; what brand are they? Or were they handmade in your backyard forge? Either way, I want some.
Hi. Can I ask you a maybe stupid question about fabric measures? I'm a newbie in tailoring and I'd like to learn. In most of the videos I've seen, there is often a large piece of fabric to cut. In my town I can only find fabrics large no more than 150 cm. How can I do if I would make a cloak for myself and need a piece large more than 180 cm? Thanks a lot and excuse my for my english. Best regards
Hello @runfridr Thank you for a fantastic tutorial!! Can you explain about the template that you use to measure the neck opening? Is this part of the pattern? Thanks.
Why do TH-camrs think we want to listen to them slurping beverages? It is right up there with scraping nails on a chalkboard. But the rest of the video is lovely.
Hi there! This is exactly what i was looking for, thank you so much!!! The explanations are well made and it's all very clear. Wonderful! I have one question though: I am going to use a lighter fabric (light cotton) and I'm not sure what to do with the hems. You sew them by hand but can it be done with a sewing machine? I'm worried it will rip if I sew them by hand. What do you think? Than you again for posting this video, it really is the most amazing thing! 🙏🙏🖖
Maybe I missed it, but how much fabric is needed for this dress? I bought the pattern for the serk, and this looks similar with different fabric. That doesn't say how much either. Thank you for the videos, the dresses are lovely and look so comfortable!
Jag hatar när jag får fel svenska och ingen rättar mig, så om jag kan vara till någon hjälp... Ordet "strykjärn" uttalas eye-urn (öga + urna) - jag vet, det är knepigt. 😊
5:46 i cannot understand this one... Steam iron IS the refular/normal one. All the iron is with steam. Only some kind of indostrial Presse or the mini iron is the electric one (so, no steam) So... Why this advice?
@@Mikichan85 an iron with a steam function is not the same as a steam iron. An iron with a steam function doesn't output as much water as a steam iron does. You know how a stick blender often have a chopping attachment trying to mimic a food processor? And how they are not the same thing, and a food processor is a bad stick blender, and a stick blender is a bad food processor, even though they can SORTA do the same things? That's the difference.
@@nopahrefa4466 i really truly don't understand what are you talking about... I saw one object in the video. That's for me "steam iron" OR "iron with steam" It's the same object that I have and I can SWEAR you that don't exist any others. Maybe for you is different, maybe you think another object, maybe there is a language barrier or in your country exist a difference but not in mine (and not where I live now). So, please, can you show with some photo what are you talking about? Put some Google link or just send it on my email. Because I want understand but it's exactly the same object for me. With no differences. 🤷🏼♀️ Thanks
@@Mikichan85 I mean. They all look more or less the same, because irons look like irons. It's just that an iron (with a steam function) doesn't necessarily output steam, and when it does steam it steams like, 2/10, whilst a steam iron always ouputs steam, anywhere from 1/10 to 10/10. Like. Why would you need a race car, I checked and even the cheapest car has an engine - does this make sense?
Excuse me ma'am. You are making a more modern style, tailored wool dress. Dresses in European high society may have been made in France, but I don't believe Viking women copied French fashion, at least not much later when Vikings no longer went Viking. Viking is a verb not a noun. Norse women wore more shapeless clothing, belted to draw in and gather at the waist. Bur how could you be pregnant and wear that dress? Once a woman was a woman she was generally married and had children shortly thereafter. Only women and girls who were upper class and were not constantly pregnant could wear such a garment and its not suitable for running a farmstead. Too tight fitting. Viling age women not only ran the household, but when the my en were away Viking(Raiding), they did all of the farm chores too, hopefully with some servants to help out. Women's clothing of the era across all cultures and nations was essentially maternity clothing that one could adjust to accommodate the blessed relief of any space between and be of smaller girth and was designed to wear at ascending heights from the waist to under the bust. At least the skirt part. The bodice Had to be blousy and accommodate full breasts and nursing. That garment ticks none of the boxes, except being made out of wool. Even high born women of class were expected to bear children regularly. The only difference would be the quality of the cloth and accessories between a peasant and high born. A high born lady might wear a similar tailored dress to a big feast if she was single and/or not expecting or somehow managed to regain her girlish figure after childbirth. Please cite sources for the historical accuracy of the garment. Ma'am I have Nordic ancestry and I don't think we wore such garments. At least I have never seen any documentation of such. At which archaeology site was a similar dress found or a dipiction in which manuscript, please? Otherwise, I believe a historical costume in winter would be a linen chemise, a woolen one over that and a woolen apron dress. Whereas, women in other countries had a similar apron type garment, but different than Nordic women's. Hose underneath
I wore wool pants once for a WWII reenactment once, and let me tell you I plowed through brambles, crawled through mud and thorns and leaves, my similarly clad husband got nearly CAUGHT ON FIRE and absolutely nothing made it through those pants. Didn't even get ticks. Pants still looked clean. I've been obsessed with finding wool clothes ever since.

Nice! Wool is defenetly the best material ever! :D
Much more unfortunate then that wool yarn is more common than wool fabric, although, it's quite possible to make very tough woolen items from yarn as well.
I have never seen wool wrinkle, even the thin flowy stuff. It is my absolute favorite fabric.
I'm a spinner and knitter so I'm obsessed with wool. I honestly don't know why we stopped wearing as much wool as we used to.
Those old sharp cutting shears remind me of my grandmothers.
Oh, I love this! I started wearing only long skirts during COVID and I don't think I will ever go back; in summer, billowing linen skirts are breezy, cool, and flattering.

Where do you buy thigh high woolen socks? How do they stay up? I would like to try these
This is literally my dream dress. Thank toy so much for talking me through the goors xxx
I found this not only very informative, but very soothing to watch. Great work on the videography and, of course, on the dress too!
Thank you! Im glad to hear that 😊🌸
The sound of those shears slicing through the wool is way more satisfying than I ever expected.
Yes I like to sound too ! :D
There is nothing more pleasant and satisfying than hand finishing. Nothing beats wool for comfort and durability. I really enjoyed this tutorial because your explanations are very clear. Thank you.

Fabulous dress and looks so neat hand felted. P.s Iron has a silent R so it's pronounced I'on but in one word ion.
This is the most simple and straightforward tutorial I have seen to date. And your choice of fabric is quite lovely. What shop do you usually use?
The fabric is from my shop. Link in the description :)
What do you think of lining it with muslin or cotton? It is such a beautiful dress❤ and seems a lining would take it up a notch to taylored. I can see embroidery in those gores, too😊. Teamwork.

It's the same object that I have and I can SWEAR you that don't exist any others.
Maybe for you is different, maybe you think another object, maybe there is a language barrier or in your country exist a difference but not in mine (and not where I live now).
So, please, can you show with some photo what are you talking about?
Put some Google link or just send it on my email.
Because I want understand but it's exactly the same object for me. With no differences. 🤷🏼♀️
Thanks
@@Mikichan85 I mean. They all look more or less the same, because irons look like irons. It's just that an iron (with a steam function) doesn't necessarily output steam, and when it does steam it steams like, 2/10, whilst a steam iron always ouputs steam, anywhere from 1/10 to 10/10.
Like. Why would you need a race car, I checked and even the cheapest car has an engine - does this make sense?
where is part 2? I can't find it anywhere! Can you point me to it - such a lovely item but I'd like to see the whole tutorial. Thanks.
Hi! If you click on my account and then videos, you can see the latest video up top that us part 2 :)
Thank you , but please don't talk too much
It's distracting
Excuse me ma'am. You are making a more modern style, tailored wool dress. Dresses in European high society may have been made in France, but I don't believe Viking women copied French fashion, at least not much later when Vikings no longer went Viking. Viking is a verb not a noun. Norse women wore more shapeless clothing, belted to draw in and gather at the waist. Bur how could you be pregnant and wear that dress? Once a woman was a woman she was generally married and had children shortly thereafter. Only women and girls who were upper class and were not constantly pregnant could wear such a garment and its not suitable for running a farmstead. Too tight fitting. Viling age women not only ran the household, but when the my en were away Viking(Raiding), they did all of the farm chores too, hopefully with some servants to help out. Women's clothing of the era across all cultures and nations was essentially maternity clothing that one could adjust to accommodate the blessed relief of any space between and be of smaller girth and was designed to wear at ascending heights from the waist to under the bust. At least the skirt part. The bodice Had to be blousy and accommodate full breasts and nursing. That garment ticks none of the boxes, except being made out of wool. Even high born women of class were expected to bear children regularly. The only difference would be the quality of the cloth and accessories between a peasant and high born. A high born lady might wear a similar tailored dress to a big feast if she was single and/or not expecting or somehow managed to regain her girlish figure after childbirth. Please cite sources for the historical accuracy of the garment. Ma'am I have Nordic ancestry and I don't think we wore such garments. At least I have never seen any documentation of such. At which archaeology site was a similar dress found or a dipiction in which manuscript, please? Otherwise, I believe a historical costume in winter would be a linen chemise, a woolen one over that and a woolen apron dress. Whereas, women in other countries had a similar apron type garment, but different than Nordic women's. Hose underneath
“easy as that”
HAH!! You might as well be speaking in your native tongue. My understanding of sewing is so poor. It’s pathetic.
