Introduction

I started attending small, local events in the early 1990's, with my husband, Alric the Younger. Mostly A Market Day at Birka and Legend's of Chivalry. Back in 2013, we decided to take our hobby to the next level by becoming members and haven't looked back, since. I love going to events where I can take a class on a craft or skill, that I wouldn't normally have access to.

Persona

Ástriðr is a Swedish woman from (roughly) the 11th century. She likes most things fibre related, especially hand embroidery, and loves to sing songs that her Irish companions have taught her.

Projects & Publications

A few years back, I learned how to make arrows
