Agree with you that it comes under the category of "quite hypothetical". If the finds were from a cu...

Corded Skirt Progress...

So how far did I get on the skirt during the weekend? Here's the progress pic: 

I had about 5 cm of the starting part woven, so weaving in the extra cord for holding the loops was done on site - and all the weaving that follows, and the cording, and the ring-making. The pic makes it very obvious that the cording and ring-making take more time than the weaving, and hence the rather great reserve of un-corded loops. This, by the way, was my workplace: 

I swapped the setup around after that image, so that I was facing the other way - this would have sat me with my back to the main path, and thus to the public. The other way around I had a nice view on the horse showing Bronze Age tack and on the musician explaning (and playing) his instruments, and the fisherman with all his nets and hooks and things. 

And as usual I have no pictures from during the day, as I completely forgot or was too busy explaining and working. I didn't get to have a nice stroll around to take pics of the other stations either, so no images from there. The curse of the soloists!

So far, so good.
