Episode Seventeen: Women's Work

from Shieldmaidens: Women of the Norse World · host Shield Maiden

In this episode, Johanna and K.S. discuss women's work, of which there was plenty! Brewing beer, spinning wool and flax, weaving, sewing, and any textile work, was the domain of women. Even the sails for the famous Viking longships were made by women, and it could take years to weave just one sail. Join us to learn more! Johanna Wittenberg: johannawittenberg.com K.S.
