Briar and Bramble

My husband is sleeping so constantly clipping bronze wire isn't going to happen tonight. XD About to start reading this given to me by a member of my household. It's from the late 80's/early 90's but should still have great information despite any new discoveries. I want to be an educated Norsewoman! History is my greatest passion. If only funds allowed for the ridiculously priced but extremely well researched and documented books I drool over. 📕📗📘 #sca #scadian #societyforcreativeanachronism #baronyofcalafia #kingdomofcaid #ladykatlahase #norse #norsewoman #viking #vikings #scandinavian #culture #medieval #compleatanachronist #history #education #bibliophile #reading (at http://www.thewellandspindle.com)

Took an Icelandic 101 class with the Viking Guild of Calafia tonight! It was fun and interesting. I can say a few sentences...kind of...now! 🍄🍄🍄 #icelandic #viking #vikings #norse #oldnorse #scandinavian #medieval #life #sca #societyforcreativeanachronism #calafia #caid #baronyofcalafia #kingdomofcaid #vikingguildofcalafia #vikingguild #instagood #persona #vikingpersona #history #culture #europe (at http://www.thewellandspindle.com)

With this bracelet I used the single weave technique of Viking Knit. Then at the end I made the spiral bead cones myself and added the charm. The charm included in this piece is a "Pennsylvania Dutch" Hex Sign. Though, the community and people known as the Penn/Pennsylvania Dutch are actually descendants of German/ German speaking immigrants to America. The term "Dutch" concerning THIS group is taken from "Deutsch" which means German people. Though the Penn Dutch are not necessarily all of German descent. The group is also comprised of other European peoples. The Hex Sign is a Penn Dutch folk art. Some see this art as purely decorative while others believe they are talismans. Which can make Hex Signs part of American Folk Magic practices. $14.50+shipping! #vikingknit #wirewrap #wirewrapped #germanamerican #penndutch #pennsylvania #pennsylvaniadutch #hex #hexsign #folkart #talisman #americanfolkmagic #folkmagic #magic #etsy #culture #heritage #forsale #american #barnart #folk (at http://www.thewellandspindle.com)
