This is a tutorial for how to assemble my Medieval/Viking Pouch kit, available in my boutique: https://foxesandravens.com/collections/digital-patterns/products/birka-viking-pouch-do-it-yourself-kit
I go through the main steps of sewing, shaping, and dyeing, with tips and tricks along the way; how to attach your needles onto your thread, how to apply dye correctly, how to increase the interior volume by shaping, and more!
Step One: Sewing 0:57
Step Two: Wet Shaping 10:52
Step Three: Dyeing 11:53
Check out @JeanFrançoisBélanger, who makes wonderful traditional music on nickelharpa and other Scandinavian instruments.
This pouch is based on find(s) from Birka, Sweden, a major viking trade city. The original pouch had a series of metal pieces on it, which gave us the idea of the shape and closure mechanism.
I also apologize that I do not as of yet have a pop filter, and occasionally have some plosive pops from Ps. I tried to make them softer in post! Hopefully next time I'll have a pop filter :)
