Cloaks were held in place by a pin at the right shoulder. The pins ranged from simple bone pins to elaborate gold jewelry. A common style was the penannular brooch (right top). The pin is held captive on a ring that has a break in it to allow the pin to pass through the ring after it has been passed through the fabric. Like all Norse jewelry, the brooch typically would have been highly decorated. A modern replica simple pin fastener is also shown to the right, and an assortment of historical pins are shown to the left, made from iron, bronze, wood, or antler.broochOther outer garments were also used, including woolen coats and jackets.
Viking cap
Caps were made of wool, or sheepskin, or leather and fur. Some had ear flaps for warmth. Typically, they were made in the Phrygian style, with four or more triangular pieces sewn together. A modern replica cap made in this manner is shown to the left, and some stitching details of the cap are shown to the right.Viking cap

Grágás, the medieval Icelandic lawbook, has further evidence on the nature of caps worn. The law [St 362] prohibited a person from pulling the hat off of someone else's head. If there was no chinstrap, the penalty was a fine. If there was a chinstrap and the hat was pulled forward, the penalty was lesser outlawry (banishment). But if there was a chinstrap and the hat was pulled backwards, the hat wearer had the right to kill in retaliation, since it was considered throttling.Viking hood
Other hood-like head coverings called höttr were worn, especially for protection in foul weather. Presumably, the höttr covered the head and shoulders, like hoods worn in the later medieval period. In Fljótsdæla saga, Sveinungr ordered a young boy at his farm to head out and gather in the sheep. The boy wanted to get his hood and gloves before leaving, but Sveinungr shamed him into leaving immediately. Sveinungr wanted the boy to be spotted and mistaken for Gunnarr, who was being pursued and who had been taken into Sveinung's protection.The replica hood shown to the right uses an extremely simple pattern, in which all the pieces of fabric are rectangles. A drawstring helped close the hood around the face. Other hoods are more carefully fitted to keep out weather.Viking hood
The sagas also tell of prestigious hats, such as Russian hats (gerzkr hattr). In Laxdæla saga (ch. 12), the slave merchant Gilli inn gerzki (the Russian) was wearing such a hat and other fine clothes. It is possible that silk-trimmed hats found in some Birka graves represent this kind of hat.Viking socks
Socks apparently were optional, depending on the wealth of the individual (although more on that in a moment). Those without the means for socks probably used moss or grasses or even hay to line their shoes. When socks were available, they were made of undyed wool. A sock found in York has a band of red trim at the top, which is how the reproduction shown to the right is constructedsock
nalbinding
However, Norse socks were not knitted (which apparently was unknown to the Norse). Instead, they were made using an ancient technique called nálbinding (needle-binding). Using a single large, thick needle, it was a method of knotting the yarn. Although time consuming, this approach resulted in a nearly indestructible garment. If the thread were to break or wear out, the garment would still be intact, since the thread was everywhere knotted to neighboring threads. Mittens and caps were also made using this technique. The sketch to the left shows the steps involved in making an article of clothing using the nálbinding technique. Note that the fabric grows in a spiral pattern. Once the spiral is large enough, it is knotted back on itself to create the shape of the finished article.nalbinding detail
(I recently met two Icelandic women who showed me that my understanding of the nálbinding technique was faulty. It may be conceptually complicated, but they demonstrated to me that knotting together garments was not only simple, but extremely fast. The cap shown to the right was the work of a single afternoon.)nalbinding cap
Mittens were also made using nálbinding techniques. In addition, there are examples of mittens made by sewing together pieces of woven woolen fabricshoes
turnsole constructionShoes typically were simple affairs made using the turnsole technique. The uppers were sewn to the sole (upper sketch to the right) with the finished side in (blue), and the rough side out (red). Then the shoes were turned inside out. This put the seam inside the shoe (lower sketch to the right), where it was less susceptible to wear. It also put the holes that resulted from the stitching inside the shoe, so the shoe was less likely to leak on wet ground. One might think that having the seam on the inside would be uncomfortable, but it's not. The seam is out of the way, and it doesn't touch the foot.
