Medieval Garmets Reconstructed

[kareina]

I have been avoiding getting a copy of Medieval Garmets Reconstructed because I have a strong preference for pdf over paper books. One can do a key word search in a pdf, and it is possible to open it more than once (or use the Windows snipping tool) to get a figure on one monitor and the text describing it on the other, so that it is easier to see what the text describes.

Much to my delight, Neulakko mentioned on her blog that the book is now available as a freely downloadable pdf!

I am tempted to try making the hair "circlet" featured in figure 2 (p 11), since I have a fair bit of hair left over from the great beard project.

... because my first reading of your post was "Medieval Garnets Reconstructed" and that made perfect sense for you!

Oh, thank you, if I ever do make time to follow up on that I idea of studying garnets in archeological finds I will so use that title for a paper!
