St Birgitta's Cap

[mrsbrown]

Made for SJKasabi for christmas

I used the following web pages.

Super list of links and pictures - http://www.larsdatter.com/birgitta-caps.htm
In Swedish but includs diagram from the article that started it all - http://middelaldercentret.dk/Projekter/Tekstilprojekter/konehue.html
Good instructions on how the gatthering works - http://nestaverchwyn.livejournal.com/4278.html
Nice pic, with actual measurements (but I didn't use them, they seemed weird when I started measuring against the cap I own that I know fits sjkasabi) - http://research.fibergeek.com/category/garbclothing/16th-century-german/wulsthaube/
I thought about doing it the easy way - http://edythmiller.blogspot.com/2010/01/st-birgittas-coif-in-15-minutes.html
The blog of the person who wrote the article that started it - http://m-silkwork.blogspot.com/search?q=birgitta
The Marc Carlson entry for the cap - http://www.personal.utulsa.edu/~marc-carlson/cloth/birgcoif.html

I wrote this before christmas and will unlock it when I remember, after christmas.
