On Saturday 5th of September we went to Largs to have a look at the viking village there. It's some sort of yearly festival to remember a viking battle in the 1200's. They also do a reenactment of the battle, but it was a bit too late in the evening for us.

This is the entrance to Largs viking village, it was a very wet and windy day

Some viking ladies doing their crafts

This viking has mittens on, they are not knitted nor crocheted, but done the old viking way with naalebinding

I am not sure what this viking was doing, but he was very intense and focused..and I do see runes...so it's definetly something to do with runes.
There was also a tent with wool and drop spindles, and the lady dyed the wool with natural colouring...of have lost her card, and I have no picutes..was too busy looking..!
I loved it, and will go next year as well!
Så spennende med vikinglandsby. Ha en fin helg!
