According to the Old Norse calendar, we are approaching the end of the third of the six winter months, and find ourselves in the middle of the winter half-year. Next week we will enter the month of Þorri. King Þorri is a personification of winter described in medieval manuscripts such as the Orkneyinga saga. For the past week, we have had lots of wonderful snow here on the west coast of Norway. 🌬 My niece bought me this comb when visiting the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo. ♥ My new Hedeby shoes, handmade by my friend Hans Gunnar at Eikthyrnir. ^^ They are handsewn in vegetable-tanned leather, but modern rubber soles have been added for more durability (and better grip on the slippery snow and grass). I also made those knee-high needlebound socks recently! Keeping warm and dry. 🧦☝🏻 Music: Munknörr - Andi (ft. Sigurboði) # Comments |
