A Piece of Living History
What the Archaeological Record Shows
Historical Legacy
Haithabu (Hedeby), the bustling crossroads of the Viking world (8th-11th century), has provided us with exceptional insights into Norse clothing construction. Our tunic design draws directly from the settlement's remarkable textile finds, particularly fragments 72 A & B, which showcase the distinctive curved armhole construction unique to this trading center. These invaluable fragments, along with pieces 64 & 65, reveal not just garment construction methods, but the practical ingenuity of Viking Age craftspeople.
Authentic Craftsmanship
Each tunic is entirely hand-sewn using techniques documented in Haithabu's textile remains. From the characteristic stitching patterns preserved in fragments 64 & 65 to the gore placement evidenced in harbor finds S14 & S15, every element reflects the archaeological record. We use only natural materials, matching those found in Haithabu's textile fragments, ensuring your garment is as authentic as it is functional.

Documented Techniques from 8th-11th Century Textile Finds
VIKING AGE CONSTRUCTION METHODS ✨ Archaeological Evidence in Every Stitch
Body Construction: The Haithabu Innovation
While Birka shows simpler rectangular construction, Haithabu's extensive textile collection reveals sophisticated tailoring evolution. Fragments 72 A & B showcase the distinctive curved armhole design, while fragments 11 & 12 demonstrate advanced panel-joining techniques. Settlement finds 82 A-D provide evidence of precise fabric cutting methods that maximized the use of valuable handwoven textiles.
Historical Construction Details:
🧵 Stitching Techniques
• Hand-sewn seams documented in fragments 64 & 65, showing seams with 3-5mm running stitches, 4-6mm backstitches, and 8-10mm seam allowances
• Curved armhole construction preserved in fragments 72 A & B, featuring 2-3mm reinforcement stitching along the distinctive curve
• Sleeve attachment methods evidenced in fragments 69 & 70, demonstrating 4mm even stitch spacing throughout
• Edge finishing techniques documented in fragments 48 & 49, showing precise 2mm whipstitches
• Panel joining methods from harbor settlement finds 91 & 92, revealing consistent 4-5mm stitch length
📏 Gore & Panel Construction
Evidence from Haithabu's harbor settlement guides our work:
• Gore placement techniques preserved in fragments S14 & S15, showing precise 45-50 degree angles
• Panel alignment methods documented in fragments 82 A-D, demonstrating widths of 45-50cm
• Hem construction details from harbor finds 101 & 102, featuring 12-15mm depth
• Neckline treatment preserved in fragments 75 & 76, showing 18-20cm opening
• Additional construction evidence from various harbor settlement fragments
✨Quality Standards
Each SVEIN tunic adheres strictly to Haithabu's archaeological evidence:
• Main seams following documented techniques from fragments 64, 65, 91 & 92, with historically accurate stitch spacing
• Curved armhole construction matching specifications from fragments 72 A & B
• Gore placement and angles replicating measurements from S14 & S15
• Panel assembly following dimensions and alignment from fragments 82 A-D
• Edge treatments reproducing techniques preserved in fragments 48 & 49



230g/m² Premium Linen - Matching Textile Finds from Birka Graves
Viking Age Linen: Woven to Archaeological Standards
PREMIUM LINEN - FROM ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE TO YOUR WARDROBE
Every authentic Viking Age garment begins with authentic materials. Our 100% linen (230g/m²) from Woolsome's LCP Collection matches the weight and weave structure found in textile fragments from Birka graves.
MATCHING THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL RECORD
At 230g/m², this linen corresponds to preserved Viking Age textiles, ensuring your garment displays the same drape, structure, and durability documented in archaeological finds. Pre-washed and ready for hand-sewing using traditional techniques.
COLORS FROM THE VIKING AGE
Dyeing and bleaching were sophisticated crafts in Viking Age Scandinavia, transforming simple linen into valued possessions. Each color in our collection reflects documented textile evidence:

White - LCP 03/01
Achieved through traditional bleaching methods documented in Viking Age settlements. This labor-intensive process of repeated washing and sun-exposure created highly valued cloth.

Natural - LCP 02/01
The authentic, unbleached tone of processed flax, extensively documented in archaeological finds throughout Scandinavia.

Beige LCP - 86/01
Matching the natural aging patterns observed in preserved Viking Age textile fragments.

Light Blue - LCP 16/01
Based on woad-dyed textile remains found in Viking settlements, created using Isatis tinctoria (woad), a documented Viking Age dye source.

MEDIUM BLUE - LCP 12/01
Deeper indigo tones achieved through multiple dye baths. This richer blue represents increased investment in dyeing processes—a visible marker of status in Viking Age society where color intensity reflected both skill and resources.

DARK BLUE - LCP 15/02
The deepest blue in our collection, requiring extensive dyeing to achieve this saturated tone. In Viking Age Scandinavia, such dark, rich colors were costly to produce and signaled wealth and social standing. This shade represents the premium end of textile craft.
Our Commitment
Each garment is created with the same attention to detail found in Viking Age textiles. Whether you're demonstrating historical techniques at a museum, participating in reenactment events, or simply appreciate historically accurate clothing, our pieces offer both authenticity and functionality.

Each pattern is thoughtfully drafted based on your measurements and archaeological evidence from sites like Birka and Haithabu, creating garments that are both authentic and perfectly fitted to you.
Precise Cutting
Using traditional techniques, we carefully cut each piece to ensure historical accuracy in shape and grain alignment—crucial for proper drape and authentic silhouette.
Hand-Stitching Legacy
Every single stitch is placed by hand, using historically documented techniques like running stitch, backstitch, and whipstitch that create strong, durable seams. No sewing machines—ever.

A Guide to Historical Garment Measurements Based on Viking Age Findings
📏 HOW TO MEASURE YOURSELF: Essential Measurements Guide
Before You Begin:
• Wear lightweight clothing or undergarments only
• Keep measuring tape snug but not tight
• Measure twice for accuracy
• Request assistance if possible
• Stand straight with arms relaxed at sides
👤 HEAD & NECK MEASUREMENTS
Head Circumference
Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your head, approximately 1 inch above your eyebrows.
Neckline at Lowest Point
Measure around your neck at the base where it meets your collarbone—this is where the tunic neckline will sit.
💪 SHOULDER MEASUREMENTS
Shoulder to Shoulder
Measure straight across your back from the outer edge of one shoulder to the outer edge of the other shoulder, following your natural shoulder curve.
Shoulder to Neck
Measure from the outer edge of your shoulder to the side base of your neck (where neck meets shoulder).Shoulder Seam
Measure along the top of your shoulder from the base of your neck to the outer edge of your shoulder.
🎯 CHEST & TORSO MEASUREMENTS
Top of Shoulder to Widest Part of Chest
Measure straight down from the top of your shoulder to the fullest part of your chest.
Chest Circumference
Wrap the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the ground and your arms relaxed at your sides.
Waistline
Measure around your natural waistline—this is where you would naturally wear a belt, typically the narrowest part of your torso.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of your hips, keeping the tape parallel to the ground.
Side Seam (Chest to Waist):
Measure straight down from the widest part of your chest to your natural waistline (where you wear your belt).
🦾 ARM MEASUREMENTS
Outer Arm Length (Shoulder to Wrist)
With your arm slightly bent in a natural position, measure from the outer edge of your shoulder, over your elbow, down to your wrist bone.
Inner Arm Length (Shoulder to Wrist)
With your arm slightly bent, measure from your armpit along the inner arm down to your wrist bone.
Biceps Circumference
Measure around the fullest part of your upper arm with your arm relaxed at your side.
Elbow Circumference
Measure around your elbow with your arm slightly bent in a natural position.
Wrist Circumference
Measure around your wrist bone where the sleeve will end.
Forearm Length (Wrist to Elbow)
With your arm slightly bent, measure from your wrist bone to the point of your elbow.
📏 LENGTH MEASUREMENT
Tunic Length (Shoulder to Knee)
Measure from the top of your shoulder straight down to your knee (or your desired length).
Dress Length (Shoulder to Ankle)
Measure from the top of your shoulder straight down to your ankle bone (or your desired length). For full-length dresses, measure to where you want the hem to fall.
Historical Note:
Traditional Viking Age tunics typically fall to mid-knee, as evidenced in period artwork and garment fragments from Haithabu, Birka, and other archaeological sites. Women's dresses and apron dresses (hangerock) typically fell to ankle length, as documented in grave finds from Birka, Haithabu, and other Viking Age settlements. The longer length for women's garments is consistently shown in archaeological textile evidence and period depictions.

✨ Ancient Wisdom for Natural Fibers
taking care FOR YOUR Hand-sewn GARMENTS
Like the skilled hands that once cared for precious textiles in Viking settlements, your garment deserves mindful treatment to maintain its beauty through time. Natural fibers respond well to gentle care, rewarding you with years of wear and increasing character with each proper washing.
Washing
• Use cool or lukewarm water for linen and plant-dyed fabrics
• Tepid water for wool to prevent felting
• Hand wash gently, avoiding agitation
• Choose mild, natural soaps suitable for each fiber
• Avoid modern detergents and bleach
• Rinse thoroughly in clean water
• For wool, maintain consistent water temperature to prevent shrinkage
Drying
• Never wring or twist any natural fibers
• Roll in a clean towel to remove excess water
• Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight
• Shape wool garments while damp
• Allow all pieces to dry completely before storing
• Plant-dyed fabrics should dry in shade to preserve colors
Storage
• Store folded in a cool, dry place
• Keep all natural fibers away from direct sunlight
• Allow fabrics to breathe naturally
• Avoid plastic containers that can trap moisture
• For wool, consider cedar or lavender for natural protection
• Iron linen while slightly damp if needed
• Never iron wool - steam only if necessary
Special Care
• Spot clean when possible
• Address stains promptly with fiber-appropriate methods
• Air between wears to maintain freshness
• Handle with clean hands
• Store away from harsh elements
• For plant-dyed items, avoid prolonged sun exposure
