One of my absolute favourite objects in @NtlMuseumsScot (re-)made for, or possibly even by, a child. Cracking short video about it 👇by @UofGArchaeo alumna @earlymedieval #Pictish #ancientTextiles Perfect for these chillier equinoctial days.

A TREASURE TROVE of a thread! Not to be missed.

Folks, I couldn't resist. I got this second hand weaving frame and I'm starting an online tapestry weaving course. Remains to be seen if I like this ancient technique. And if it likes me.
