Mitten pattern found!

Well, how stupid of me not to check out Kongshirden 1308 first. They had a whole page about preserved mittens from the middle ages, including one pattern. it was made from leather and is only dated to "the middle ages", but I think I will use it anyway.

I have pink!

The linen turned out a lovely, soft pink. Before rinsing it was a medium strong orange/coral colour, but now it's a nice shade of pink. Which I like must better anyway. It's not totally dry yet, but it looks good. Due to my laziness (and to the fact that I actually have been working and thus haven't been able to stay at home and stir fabric) it is a little blotchy, but I think I may be able to get a shift out of it without using the blotchiest parts. And it's underwear anyway :)
