Making a St. Birgitta Coif - Medieval Cap Part 2

I have been wanting to make one of these caps for years, but felt very intimidated by the center embroidery. I am so glad I finally sat down and took the time to figure it out, totally worth it! If you also want to try the herringbone insertion stitch, I recommend checking out my previous video showing how to do a basic/simple version of the stitch: https://youtu.be/IyFQgEaaI14 Also, I am just now realizing that I never even mentioned the simple band embroidery! I never intended to do it, but the book (link below) has instructions on how to do it for anyone interested. Read all about the St. Birgitta Cap and it's fancy (3 row!) insertion stitch in Dahl & Sturtewagen's article, The Cap of St. Birgitta, in Medieval Clothing and Textiles 4, pages 99-129.
