Yep, it's sure going to be warm if the weather stays hot but then again it's been raining hard here now since 4am this morning!!!!
I'll either be wearing linen under the kilt or nothing....depends how hot it is. I've got some nice dark brown dearskin too so might knock up a loin cloth out of that.
There aren't any links to the 1800's weekend we're doing as we've not done one before. It's less about dressing up in period costume anyway and more about a few of us going to the woods for the weekend with nothing but items that were available in the 1800's. Our basic kit will be the clothes we stand up in which must be made of natural fibres with no zips or poppers etc and to carry...just knife, blanket and billy can...maybe an axe. All food to be wrapped in paper so there will be no plastic comeing along all weekend and seeing how we get on, it's part of a sort of drive some of us have to use absolute minimum kit. It's happening next weekend so I'll post some piccy's when we get back. We're using a modern camera but will be only using it in cepia mode so all the pics come out looking old lol
Should be a giggle if nothing else!
Thanks agan for the info on the wool dye
Bam.
