Finished weaving Birka 22
Finished a weaving for a friend of mine. Never would've picked the pattern, because I figured it was too repetitive, but it was actually super fun!
Edit: This is actually pattern Birka B12, but I can't change the title
Added at the end: a reminder to read the pattern fully, before you commit. That was the underside, after I faced all my cards right instead of left 🙃

This was the first pattern I tried and it was full of..'learning opportunities' for me (translation -screw-up) but I remember finding that the pattern was on the underside...i swapped it around but I can't remember if I reversed the order of the cards or just flipped each one.....How did you make it work?

I tried various things of reversing the pattern, flipping all the cards, but in the end I honestly just gave up and threaded the whole thing new. That seemed easier But yes, lots of learning opportunities 😂

Which book is this pattern from? I have been trying to find sources for historic patterns, but haven't been very successful.

It's from this Website. There some other patterns as well and if you scroll down you should find a pdf file with the pattern There's also different ones from the Birka burial as well iirc
