keetabirdy Well, since I'm rather new to the SCA, my skills are lacking a bit, but I'm learning. I'm learning how to hand stitch things with stitches they used in the period and am learning to adapt my cross-stitching skills to blackwork. I am also learning to knit more proficently, though I'm not really sure knitting is period? Knitting is sort of period. It's similar to Naalbinding that the Norse used to do.... to knit socks, I think. XD I'm learning to knit as well, and I was researching the possibility of knitting in period, when Naalbinding crossed my path. It's the same idea as knitting, weaving loops together to make fabric, but it's a little more complex, and done with a single needle that I think looks something like a tapestry needle. I could be wrong, I can't find much for information. ^^;
So, um.. Yay knitting and the like. ^_^

I do illumination, period embroidery (which I'm hoping to embroider an award scroll for A&S competition), embroider on leather, leather carving, I garb all the newbies in our area, period cookery, and I am hoping to learn weaving and herbalism. I like archery, but I haven't been able to replace my bow since it broke, and I want to get a set of throwing knives, once I've replaced the dead target in my back yard. I don't fight, but I'm hoping to get into it, if I get the doctors' okay.
