Is this, by any chance, the wool you sent me with your gift exchange package :?:

Hmmm, sort of camel-colored stuff? I think that was originally a skirt! Wound up being too small for my hood pattern IIRC.

skirts can be a good source of wool, I've already used up the linen you sent, I'll post that project at some point :P

It's just a slightly modified version of the standard viking hood pattern, just try it with some cheap fabric to get the angles right before cutting some nicer wool
Thanks again Iodo this is gonna eliminate so much trial and error :P

No problem, eventually I will do a video on how to make a hood, but for now some random diagrams will have to do, I look forward to seeing what you make :P
