  • So we've watched Vikings...but what did the real Vikings wear? In this video, I am creating an apron dress, or smokkr, a garment commonly associated to Viking Age Scandinavia.

    Fun fact, the word "serk" for underdress is still used in modern day Norwegian. It's also used to mean any form of chemise or underdress, not only the medieval ones. We also have a term here which is "å gå rundt i serken" (to walk around in the serk), which means just lounging around in your underwear.

    YES! I love everything about this! You made such a superb smokkr! Looks lovely with the bead set and brooches as well.

    4:45 their simple looms created rectangular panels. Because it took hours, if not days, to weave each panel, and the number of sheep or fleece goats that would be needed to have enough wool, they would have created clothing with a minimum of seams, darts and cuts.

      Weaving is such a beautiful art! One thing I love about this type of style, even making it now, is how you can use the entire piece of fabric with no waste!

    Swedish Wikipedia says a särk is a linnen undergarment similar to a long-sleeved shirt or dress. During the viking age the särk had no sleeves. A särk could be made of wool. It did not necessarily have to be an undergarment.
    During the early medieval age, the särk became a female garment and the shirt (skyrta) became a male garment. They were both made of linnen.
    The Norwegian word is serk.
    Also, I'm impressed by your pronunciation! Bra jobbat! However, as a Swedish person I want to point out that "hejsan svejsan!" can be used as "cheerio!" I use "hejsan" as "hi!" and "hejsan svejsan!" as "bye!"

    I think the knotted hair on the Valkyrie figurines might be a ritual hairstyle exclusive to them. A sort of sign that they are Valkyries. I say this because it reminds me of one possible version of a Swebian knot.

    if you're down to make your own viking age shoes i can recommend a good pattern for the Oseberg find style of shoe.
    i'd love to make an apron in this style, i just find it so pretty! are you thinking of making a tutorial for it?

      Ooh! While I can't guarantee my follow though on a shoes project, I would absolutely love the pattern either way!
      I may do a tutorial! Did you see the Patreon post with my sketch / notes? I would be glad to help you adjust that to your size as well!

    Can you use the base off your tunic-dress from your shop?
    And what if you don't know inches but metric instead? Will it still be right when you convert cm to inch?

    I'm intrigued by the ' belt' you made. Very cool! Do you follow Jimmy the Welsh Viking? He has loads of serious information and history on the Viking age! Your interpretation of the apron dress and necklace with clips 😍 and you can climb at tree! Lol tfs 🙂👍🍁
