Hjælp søges... / Help wanted ...

På Museet Ribes Vikinger i Ribe, ligger der en nålebundet vante.
Det eneste museet ved om denne vante, er at den er fundet i et middelalder kulturlag - og det er jo ikke alverden, for os der elsker nålebinding og gerne vil vide mere om de fund der er.

Så vi er en lille flok privatpersoner, der i samarbejde med museet, har startet et Crowd Funding projekt, der går ud på at indsamle midler til at få denne vante C14-dateret, så vi kan få noget mere information om denne vante.

Vi har stadig brug for hjælp og støtte til projektet.

In Museet Ribes Vikinger, a museum in Ribe, Denmark, there is a mitten, done in nålbinding, on display.
The only thing the museum knows about this mitten, is that it is found in a medieval cultural layer and nothing else and that is just not enough, for those of us who want to know more about it.

Due to the need for knowlegde, we have started a Crowd Sourcing project in cooperation with the museum.
The project is about collecting funds to having the mitten C14-dated, so that we can learn more about the precise age and anything else they can tell us about it.

We still need help and support to get this to work!.

Sting prøver / Stich samples

Jeg er gået i gang med at lave små prøver med forskellige sting, for at kunne sammenligne sting.
Jeg startede med prøver i tynd garn, men nu er jeg startet med at lave nogle af de samme sting, bare i tykkere garn, for at kunne sammenligne sting i tyk og tynd garn også :)

I kan se min begyndende samling her:


I've started making small stitch samples, to compare the different stitches to each other.
I've started making samples in thin yarn, but now I've begun making some of the same stitches in thicker yarn, to compare the same stitches in different yarns.

You can see the start of my collection here:




















Jeg har 12 prøver indtil videre, og samlingen bliver løbende forøget.
For at se sting prøverne en for en, se fanebladet med Sting prøver / Stitch samples.

I have 12 samples so far and the collection keeps getting bigger.
To see the stitch samples one by one, take a look a the tap named Sting prøver / Stitch Samples.
