Any news regarding the early medieval stuff that we heard plans about last September or so?

Which ones? There are some done, there are some rescheduled.

Specifically was hoping for news about the Thorsberg trousers. Kass had said that she might do a pattern for those, and I don't see them on the website. I don't remember what else, but I think there were a few other things pre-1000 in the cards as well, but there's been no update about that in the blog or on the site unless I've missed it.

No, you haven't missed it.

Pre-1000AD stuff has gone on the back burner for the time being, as Kass wraps her brain around early-C20 stuff. Perhaps later in 2010.

Thanks!
