RH013 - Greenland Gown 1b[/url]
Greenland Tunics designated Type 1b (mistakenly termed "The Ten-Gore Dress"), found in the graveyard at Herjolfsnes, Greenland and carbon dated to 1380-1530. These garments are more fitted than the other Greenland finds, but still pull over the head and are not tight.
Type 1b is male or female and fits chests 28"-54".

RH014 - Greenland Gown 1c[/url]
Greenland Tunics designated Type 1c, found in the graveyard at Herjolfsnes, Greenland and carbon dated to 1180-1310. These garments are less fitted than the more famous Greenland finds, but still pull over the head.
Type 1c is male or female and fits chests 28"-54".
All Sizes included one envelope. Variations represented by the Greenland garments are represented in the pattern. Complete historical sewing techniques (as well as modern assembly) explained in the instructions.
Happy New Year!
