The Welsh Viking | I Make Viking Gloves (And Play in the Snow!) @TheWelshViking | Uploaded February 2021 | Updated October 2024, 4 minutes ago.
Any Viking will tell you that no Viking winter fashion is complete without some mittens or gloves. Gloves were the only things missing from my Viking winter look, so I whipped up a super easy pair of mittens, based on archaeological finds, to go and play in the Edinburgh snow!

Somehow I managed to tear myself away from Valheim (yes, I'll be reviewing it!) and decided a snowball fight in Greyfriars Kirkyard counted as my lockdown exercise for the day! Join me as I show you how simple it is to make authentic, cosy mittens for all your sea raiding and Norse sailing needs!
