Colour: orange, yellow, white, blue. If you need different colours, choose “custom colours” during purchase.

Historical evidence: This is a modern pattern designed following the logic of medieval tablet weaving techniques. Geometric patterns are suitable for the historical reenactment of Celtic, Scandinavian, Rus, Slavic, Anglo-Saxon, and other Iron Age and early medieval peoples.
Wash with care, hand wash only!
What is this craft?
Tablet (card) weaving is an ancient craft of making strong, narrow, decorative bands. In the past men and women wore tablet woven bands as belts, leg wraps, hair bands or garment trims. Today tablet woven bands are used in historical reenactment (from Celtic to late medieval Europe), SCA, LARP, folk costumes and all kinds of pagan, fantasy or Viking societies. They can also serve as handfasting cords, guitar straps, bag straps, bookmarks and many more.
