One reason for this is that it became less common to depict people wearing cloaks as teh 14th century progressed. While written sources show that they were still in use, in art they more and more became shown as ceremonial garments.In other cases you just don't see if the woman is wearing both a cotte and a surcoat.</p><p>In some of these you have to really look closely to see the cloak, since it appears to fastened at the edge of the shoulders.</p><p>This is not a reasearch post, just a few pictures that I have. When the whole set is finished there will be proper documentation.</p><p>Giotto di Bondone: Scrovegni Chapel 1304-1306</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigINAnzFOlHuY5qFgK5kW0j4Lv0RRPafUO6PLPOgXLLbB_1cL4QbszRSd8okIz5IVI9GAt2T302pjdy_WMEvqr2UJJbSuWTLv2SRYoaWl2SynW5zajM2kJIsj-Hz41fDMJV7JOj6kvpkrzgN0In-Dh-uCH5rlCj1miTHqTkEZQ_D0KsnXtEMJOnOB1gRs/s599/giotto_joachim_detail.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="599" data-original-width="491" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigINAnzFOlHuY5qFgK5kW0j4Lv0RRPafUO6PLPOgXLLbB_1cL4QbszRSd8okIz5IVI9GAt2T302pjdy_WMEvqr2UJJbSuWTLv2SRYoaWl2SynW5zajM2kJIsj-Hz41fDMJV7JOj6kvpkrzgN0In-Dh-uCH5rlCj1miTHqTkEZQ_D0KsnXtEMJOnOB1gRs/s320/giotto_joachim_detail.jpg" width="262" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>Pietro Lorenzetto: St. Catherine and St. Agatha c 1315.

Matching cottes, surcoats and cloaks are also commonly seen in early and mid. 14th century art.</p><p>I will write much more about the set, the construction, the inspiration etc when it isall finished.

It was built 20 years ago, as a copy of a ship that sank outside Gothenburg in 1745. </p><p>I had for some reason never been to see the ship, and I thought that it would be nice to dress up for it. So I hand sewed a mid-18th century working class outfit.

And I have now made a bench cushion.</p><p> In 2001, when I made my large tent my stepfather also helped us made a large table and benches, which has been used by both Nylöse and Gotvik, the two medieval groups that I have been member of for many years.

Like Branna Alfhild got a painted glass with my badge on it, in the same style as mine, and with her heraldic device on it. <br />And she also got a green belt. The leather belt was a gift from my Mistress, Mistress Helwig, upon my Laurelling, and the I bought the pewter buckle and belt end from my frist apprentice, <a href="https://handcraftedhistory.blog/" target="_blank">Branna's shop</a>, at Double Wars. This is also the first time I've fitted a buckle and belt end to leather - as they say in Swedish: You learn as long as you have students.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp01lN4wAsc-q7zVHUvXmJjVhXndazYgBYBZjAVgQ3TXhjz4VgtXBVieyKtj3fdUxd2zPNSsOk4b9A85Yc9oyxXJ-J4ZKi7Ui4feCsIeE8D4UqDLnXaPRxDJPV4Nac6CzUqMVnw4usHU6mVSnY9T3lSh8tFXPecKoQYzKN6Mb2rJIbtgCvRHFYEteT/s1000/alfhildochjag2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="725" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp01lN4wAsc-q7zVHUvXmJjVhXndazYgBYBZjAVgQ3TXhjz4VgtXBVieyKtj3fdUxd2zPNSsOk4b9A85Yc9oyxXJ-J4ZKi7Ui4feCsIeE8D4UqDLnXaPRxDJPV4Nac6CzUqMVnw4usHU6mVSnY9T3lSh8tFXPecKoQYzKN6Mb2rJIbtgCvRHFYEteT/s320/alfhildochjag2.jpg" width="232" /></a></div><br /><p>As with Branna, my first apprentice, I didn't, and still don't really know what and how much I can give to an apprentice, with my exhaustion and general bad health. But it appears that both my apprentices want the same thing: help to do more research and scholarly writing, which at least is something that I am good at.</p><p>So, overcoming my feeling of inadequacy, I have now asked two talented people, and two friends, to be my apprentices. And both of them said yes. Well, Branna asked me first, but that was years ago, and she <i>could </i>have changed her mind. </p><p>A Laurel-apprentice relationship can take many forms. When I was apprenticed to my Mistress Helwig it was most of all a way to bind us together closer in our friendship. I don't live close enough to her to learn tailoring skills, and research I could already do. It was a way of formalizing the closeness that we've felt since we first met, many years ago,</p><p>I think that that is one of the things that Alfhild's and mine Laurel-apprenticeship is about too. We already do lots of projects together, including holding all A&S meetings and courses in Gotvik. We are not exactly in the same field, though overlapping, but we support and inspire each other. And as her Mistress I give her a place in my household, a place where she belongs, where she is home. While she lives further away I hope that I can be that for Branna too in some sense.</p><p>This photo taken by Margareta Arvidsdotter is an excellent one of me and Alfhild - always talking about different medieval and early modern material culture, and things that we want to make.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXLlI-Cwovz47wmfqu1NacL30-yyKVOHEI20KdU3R9fxO2w2Eu_qQYRp1Db4i7vKcKkhlUnQ24jyN7wZdWH2hN15bXsrA8EeA3pV8geAma3OTlzjazWOd-_E_Bmxi3YxVg0IoDDgcaDkhzrPjF5R1MvJD_ZdS1aB0KBjCXZJ-xz2pw2DJLF3xVrJp2/s1333/alfhildochjag3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="1333" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXLlI-Cwovz47wmfqu1NacL30-yyKVOHEI20KdU3R9fxO2w2Eu_qQYRp1Db4i7vKcKkhlUnQ24jyN7wZdWH2hN15bXsrA8EeA3pV8geAma3OTlzjazWOd-_E_Bmxi3YxVg0IoDDgcaDkhzrPjF5R1MvJD_ZdS1aB0KBjCXZJ-xz2pw2DJLF3xVrJp2/s320/alfhildochjag3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>Evahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04991158901359984541noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-429781128175064591.post-76839271629562056172022-06-07T14:07:00.003-07:002022-06-09T08:23:18.223-07:00The Cocharelli project<p> Since a couple of years I have realized that I am not satisfied with making one dress inspired by this wonderful 1330s illumination from Genoa, now at <a href="https://www.clevelandart.org/art/1953.152" target="_blank">Cleveland Museum of Art</a> - I want to make them all!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi50KIYcAuHksL1NFB0PH9kt2EyXjjF6Gtp-5drBLWPj8MteIQ7OUZ7pOZeXeEYWa6ZRP7MiYYvH3Cc0sr0bO-VJyebAEXeUg-u3c38aKrHB4H9R4EH8ikxW2iQR6KoDEbxIPM7AB4yWO1WuntAZ9QsN6oSOwXUNcm2L1E1ZQxNh4QySc8CSu08iw8f/s893/Leaf%20from%20a%20Cocharelli%20Treatise%20on%20the%20Vices,%20Accidia%20and%20Her%20Court,%20c.%201330.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="893" data-original-width="557" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi50KIYcAuHksL1NFB0PH9kt2EyXjjF6Gtp-5drBLWPj8MteIQ7OUZ7pOZeXeEYWa6ZRP7MiYYvH3Cc0sr0bO-VJyebAEXeUg-u3c38aKrHB4H9R4EH8ikxW2iQR6KoDEbxIPM7AB4yWO1WuntAZ9QsN6oSOwXUNcm2L1E1ZQxNh4QySc8CSu08iw8f/s320/Leaf%20from%20a%20Cocharelli%20Treatise%20on%20the%20Vices,%20Accidia%20and%20Her%20Court,%20c.%201330.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><p>Finding striped brocade is very, very hard, so for a first attempt at the red and gold outfit in the bottom centre, I had to settle for much less bold colours. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrImPSByEbFtYW3Z1HjfhKjobmRivfg-PlSaAyD5dfKXZagKI6lZqmNw5jrLKTAFDDaiIqzjWo3bclCDMbXQyMpkO1YeIP67vpFwJ2tg_1TsfaWOK03puhiYYptIBTF_3p9l_M30I0EQ9DoCy1lXJzTpwNQ3w_JMuzGvCYo73ukjYwgTx-CAAJtxWh/s1000/randig%20f%C3%A4rdig%20fram1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="488" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrImPSByEbFtYW3Z1HjfhKjobmRivfg-PlSaAyD5dfKXZagKI6lZqmNw5jrLKTAFDDaiIqzjWo3bclCDMbXQyMpkO1YeIP67vpFwJ2tg_1TsfaWOK03puhiYYptIBTF_3p9l_M30I0EQ9DoCy1lXJzTpwNQ3w_JMuzGvCYo73ukjYwgTx-CAAJtxWh/s320/randig%20f%C3%A4rdig%20fram1.jpg" width="156" /></a></div><p>More about that outfit <a href="http://evashistoricalcostumes.blogspot.com/p/a-genuese-outfit-from-1330s.html" target="_blank">here.</a></p><p>But I have now also made the blue, more normal, blue outfit.

I made "modern" clothing from one of them, and I still have two left that may become Regency gowns, or possibly something 1920s. But this one, which has silver flowers on green, just like my SCA device, definitely had to become something from within the SCA-period.<div><br /></div><div>I wanted to use the border for the bottom of the skirt, so I had to piece the skirt at the top. I also wanted the silver borders in front of the bodice, which, as you see, is worn slightly open. This took some patterning, but luckily there is so much fabric in a sari, that I had some to play with. The sleeves are made from the pallu, so thay have much more silver in them than the rest of the gown.</div><div>The bodice has twio layers of sturdy thrifted linen bed sheet as lining/interlining, and a pice of hemp cord is stitched to the fron edges to keep them straight.</div><div><br /></div><div>Since the silk is really sheer, way too sheer for this type of gown, I also had to make a new camicia to wear under it. I usually make my camiciae calf lenght, but this oen needed to be long enough so that you didn't see my legs through the skirt. This one is made from thin cotton, but normally they would have been linen,</div><div><br /></div><div>Under the camicia I have another shift, with a tight bodice from two layers of linen, and laced in the side, to keep my boobs in place.</div><div><br /></div><div>These photos were taken just before court on Tuesday night at <a href="https://doublewars.org/" target="_blank">Double Wars</a>, a big camping event in the SCA kingdom of <a href="https://drachenwald.sca.org/#/" target="_blank">Drachenwald</a>.

Since it is important that you will be able to felt it a little, superwash will not work. There are yarns specially made for felting, but I used what I had at home. Felting will shrink the cap, depending on how much you felt it.</p><p>I used a 2,5 mm (US 1 ½) cable needle, and when the decreases made the cable needle too large, 2,5 mm double pointed needles.
