There are several advantages to this method. First, this method avoids wasting fabric by making use of rectangles and right triangles.

The Bocksten Tunic Bocksten is a peat bog in Halland, in the southwest of Sweden. In 1936 the body of Bocksten Man was found there and taken to Varberg Museum. He had been murdered, and an oak paling driven through his body to stop him from haunting. He wore a tunic, a mantle, woolen hose, leather shoes, carried two leather belts and two knives.

I made some modifications to the Bocksten design based imagery from the late 14th century. The first part I made was the torso. The Bocksten torso is made up of two pieces, rectangular, attached at the shoulders (with a hole for the head, of course) and at the upper waist.

I've started using more period patterns to make garb. Largely I've been using a pattern that is most famously taken from the Bocksten tunic (14 th cent) but is also heavily featured in Rus' garb and a pattern similar to that used in the Mamluk tunics and the Kern tunic, also heavily used in Rus' garb. There is strong evidence that the Bocksten pattern was used much earlier and we have.

As we've mentioned earlier, the Bocksten Man's tunic is one of the best-preserved medieval tunics in Europe. Some pieces of clothes were sewn with woolen threads, which survived as nicely as the garment itself. Other pieces were sewn with linen threads, which deteriorated with time. The tunic is made from wool.
Bocksten Cloak The Medieval Shoppe
There I found a 'commercial' paper pattern for the only surviving complete Medieval man's outfit, found in the Bocksten bog in Sweden in 1936. It consisted of a pair of hose with 'socks' attached, a tunic, a hood and a cloak. All recovered garments were made of wool, if any linen garments were worn with them they had been destroyed.

The next pattern is a 2 gored Bocksten tunic. I worked it up because I have several customers who want cotton Bocksten tunics (hence why it's based on 45" wide fabric). While I have nothing against Bockstens (in fact, I think they look really nice), I needed a less time consuming alternative that gave the same look as a traditional Bocksten..
