Rosalie was making a pouch recently and I asked her how she worked the strings to fasten it. Here is her answer, which is clear and beautifully illustrated. If you don’t already follow Rosalie, you should. You can also find her on Facebook at Rosalie’s Medieval Woman. And if you have ever been curious about the sex lives of medieval women (and who hasn’t) you may want to buy her book, as well. It was a fun read as well as informative. You can buy it here or at other fine book sellers, in kindle, paperback or audiobook formats.
