I will be attending my first Renaissance festival in November, at 80 years old, and am making my garb. I am a widow, and was thinking of making a wimple, fillet and veil. I will wear a cotton chemise, but the kirtle and surcoat, are linen. I will also have two mid thigh long capes, one linen and the other a loosely woven wool tweed. I have just finished cutting out my mock-ups , and will begin hand sewing soon. Thank you for all the information contained in your video. I just subscribed.

It is lovely!

This is great. I hope you start making more videos somewhen ❤❤❤

You have a very interesting face. That headdress really suits you.

Great job! Where can I find the pattern for these?

As a communist, I deeply disdain and resent such association with circular needles!

Hey Kid, where did you learn all This?

I was going to say a bit of the tape felled over the raw edge would soothe the soul. Hate raw edges so much.

You need to compare these bonnets with 16th century “Monmouth caps” commonly worn in Tudor times.

Is there a decent way to make this on a knitting loom?

are you a man? edit never mind I seen your other videos

😊thanks for sharing 😊

Thanks

Excellent video, thanks! Also you look fantastic in your kit :)

I like your bonnet. But it doesn’t look like Dougal McKenzie’s tam 😢.

Great video. I really enjoyed it. I'm just tentatively planning to try some costuming and was keen to take inspiration from Anne Boleyn too!

When your voice first changes, your brain is still "calibrated" to your old pitch, so you may unconsciously raise it back up.

This is so pretty. I’ve made Jane Seymour’s gabled hood and Elizabeth of York’s gabled hood. I haven’t tried a French hood yet.

I have short hair, coupled with a relatively flat back-of-my-head, so I have a terrible time of keeping any headband/coif on my head.

Thanks for using my music and for the credit....

Is this a man or a transvestite woman

Waiting for some green linen to finish my dark green wool small-clothes. Already made some black wool small-clothes. second time will be more easy I think.

I work for a theater as a stitcher. Your video has been super helpful to me in the last couple weeks while I was working on a jacobean show! I've made 3 so far!

You are so mentally confused. You need serious help.

Such a shame!! You will come to regret it.

Hooray! Great to see you again, safe and - hopefully - sound! (If us history buffs may actually called that... 😂) Aa' the best fae germany!

Wherever you are, whatever you do right now, bless you and be safe!

Ochon, I hope youre well!! Aa' the best from Germany and an auld german teuchter...

Keep up the good work! And be yourself, whatever the odds, it's YOUR life!!! ❤

Pity to haven't you seen of late, excellent work and very educated! Started highland piping an reenactment in the 80'ies and studied history and archeology in the 90'ies, made my living for near 20 years as a self-employed piper (weddings, whisky tastings etc..) so I seem to "ken a wee bit" also after living a while in the highlands in the 90'ies (even more familiar with highlan' lore than some of the natives...😂) I immensely enjoy your videos, clannadh na gael!❤❤❤

😍 I want one now 😂

Hi! I'm new to your channel (thank you weird algorithm) and, in a non-weird way, I would like to compliment your voice! I don't usually 'get it' without watching subtitles, but I was able to listen to you while oft looking down at my own craft project, and still understood the words, so.... yay us! *16th century version of high-5* The Scotch Tape, while in Scotland, made me LOL! (Is 'bonnet" an okay word to use?)

Looks gorgeous.

I'm confused. One video you look like a girl, but sound like a guy, & in another, you looks like a guy, but sound like a girl. Are there 2 of you; twins perhaps?

Looked fuchsia to me.

Fo The first writing looks like Bickman Font.

„Against every instinct in my body and my soul, I left the edge unfinished“ ufff.. I could feel your pain 🥲 maybe a little piece of bias band to bind the endge and sooth the soul? 💖

This is a great tutorial!

Weird hats are my favorite

You gotta practice with some voice lessons (there's free ones on youtube) to train your voice down, the T only gets you so far. Thank you for this great video dude

Nice work, fun to watch! Thanks.

An enjoyable video, especially as I wear the fèileadh-mòr quite often. Just one thing though: we pronounce plaid like "played".

Scotch Tape is a North American brand name for the tape made by 3M. It has become a general term for that style of tape in North America, similar to how Kleenex now refers to all facial tissues now

They look great. Well done.

Holy crap. They look so good.

Thank you! That was very interesting!

I just finished mine! I do have long hair and this holds it nicely low on my head, and in fact, low enough to fit under a bike helmet. I’m probably going to end up using this more for cycling than for historical costuming :-D
