- In this video I go through my trunk of cold weather clothing that I use for Civil War reenactments. I show and talk about my shawls, Sontag, caps, scarfs, caplets, and cape.

The caplets were my favorites!
I really like them as well!
I’m a longtime crocheter an that is a bonnet. Very beautiful!
ooo, I love how warm that cape/cloak looks. A warm cape reminds me of a hug, it just sorta surrounds you.
Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you so much for watching!!
The moment the temperature drops below 55, I need to cover my ears. The rest of me will be fine, but it is imperative my ears don't get cold, cuz the pain is so bad. I love all the layers for winter!
Thank you for watching!
That first shawl is so pretty!
Thank you! It is one of my favorites!
I came over to your channel from watching some Secret Santa videos. I'm so glad I found your channel! You are so genuinely lovely and your creations are splendid! Keep doing what brings you joy.
Oh thank you so much! I am so happy you found me too. Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement!
Lovely video! I didn't know that knitted/crocheted headwear was worn historically. So practical and cozy.
Hehehe... by sleeping in a tent my head comes so cold, every time, even in summer, that I have to wear a sleeping cap too. Don't know, that this is a thing for others too. ^^ Your version makes me think of reduing mine, because mine is always slipping away during the nights.
Oh yay, it's nice to know there is someone else too. The cap I showed in the video stays on my head very well.
I us my medieval hood when tenting at reenactments. It keeps me from getting a cold. And is essential except in high summer.
Oh you should get a shawl pin. It's basically a stick and a ring that you like stick the stick through your shawl and the ring... Hard to explain but I'm sure you can find it online!
I'll have to look into it. Thanks!
Oh, those caps look lovely! I realise now that I like the style of caps more than modern beanies. Maybe I need to knit myself a cap to wear in my everyday life...
How cold is winter where you live? I have just recently subscribed so I have not yet figured out where you are from. I am from Finland and for me winter means -5 to -20 degrees Celsius, even if weather has gone mad this month and we have + 5 degrees atm.
Welcome! I'm so happy you found my channel, and I think it would be so fun if you were able to knit yourself a cap. I love it when I am able to bring historical elements into my every day dress. I live in the south east portion of the United States, so our winters are very mild. It may snow once every couple of years. Our low for today is 36 degrees Fahrenheit.
Now I need to make myself a Sontag.
Oh yes, that would be lovely!
That jacket in wool with separate sleeves for lower arms, mittens and muff, that capelet in wool and a woolen cap plus a bonnet and I might survive up to (or more precisely down to) -15 degrees Celcius. My toes would probably freeze in victorian, unlined boots. But if I had a too big pair, I could wear a couple pairs of woolen socks, and a woolen/padded petticoat. Or two. Hmm that might be doable. Nice video! Made me think what kind of victorian clothing I might need to survive here in Fennoscandia.
Your cat is adorable!
Thank you my kitty is very curious when I get all dressed up. It would be a very interesting experimented indeed to see how well Victorian clothing would keep you warm.
If you're interested Priorattire made a video here on UA-cam of Victorian winter wear that she tested in Finland and found quite warm, I don't have a link but it's the one with a green jacket in the thumbnail.
It's either a Connect or a Bap. (The black crocheted connect/bap that's more fashionable
You are the cutest. I love your videos!
Awe thank you!! It makes my heart so happy that you do!
That second bonnet!! I need to make one. I can't find adult bonnet patterns anywhere! They are all baby patterns.
Thanks! I got it at a sutler. I'm not sure if this would be helpful, but you could try looking up 1860's or Victorian Ladies Bonnet Knitting/Crochet patterns. I have not personally made one, but it might help you find one. :)
@@HistoricalBelle thank you so much! That is a great idea! Idk why I never thought to try vintage patterns! ❤️
Thank you so much for sharing 🥰 it's all so beautiful 😍
Thank you so much for watching!
That's so pretty!!
Thank you!!!
Sooooo amazing you are awesome also how do you get your hair like that
Thanks! I actually have a video about how I do the hairstyle that I'm wearing in this video. It is called "How to do a Braided 1860's Hairstyle"
I believe the headgear would be a "hood", rather than a cap or a bonnet.
You don't have to hold a shawl in place if you have a pin or a clasp for it :)
Good tip!
@@HistoricalBelle Viking reenactment is where I learned that
The hats look like toques.
Lovely video! Do you have any pattern for the first shawl ? i've been looking for one for quite a long time now 🤔🤔
Thank you! I'm sorry to report that I do not have a pattern for that shawl. I think I got it at a thrift store a long time ago. I hope you do find a pattern though.
Love the grey knitted cap. Any idea where I would bet the pattern to make one for myself?
Thank you! I do not sadly, you could try googling 1860's knit hood patterns.
I'd say it is a cap rather than a bonnet because it's not structured.
You look so cute!💕💕💕💕
Thank you!
Where do you get the things you didn't make? I wear a lot of victorian clothes too. I am able to find dresses and accessories, but not coats or shawls.
Usually I find the shawls at thrift shops or vintage shops, or sometimes they can be found on Esty. As for the scarfs and hats I didn't make, I got them from sutlers at reenactments. I don't think the ones I got them from have websites unfortunately.
Does anyone know where you can get cheap but real looking victorian clothing?
Do you have a pattern for the bonnet at 4:15?
I am sorry to say that I do not. I purchased it from a sutler.
@@HistoricalBelle Do you have a name or link for them? :)
@@TealCheetah I'm sorry I do not remember the name of the shop. I got it several years ago.
Shawls look more like crochet- not knit.
I'd say it is a cap rather than a bonnet because it's not structured.
Thank you, that makes sense.
