…in which JuulTube briefly threatens to become a woodworking channel before returning back to some wholesome handsewing content. I accidentally made a Viking laptop case from scratch, and had a lot of fun! There’s captions for some more information throughout the video, and some sources below if you want to know more about these so called Hedeby/ Haithabu bags!

If you wish to support my endeavours, you can buy me a 'coffee' at: ko-fi.com/juulthijssen

Non-friendly reminder that people who like Viking stuff because they believe this supports wh ite su premacy are wrong and they have to leave and get themselves educated.
