The Kingdom of Ansteorra gives regalia with some awards. It can range from circlets to cloaks, pendants to spurs. One of the common forms of regalia is the woven lanyard or garter. Check out the examples below!

These insignia are woven by volunteers within the populace (anyone who plays or participates with the SCA). Which means you can weave them, too!

But, you may ask, how??

These can be woven using an inkle loom, or any other up/down warp-facing weaving methods. The big thing you need is the patterns for each piece of regalia!

That’s where Baroness Muirenn Chernaig, Barony of Wiesenfeuer, is here to help you out! Baroness Muirenn has provided patterns and guides for each piece of Ansteorran woven regalia! Check out the slides and resources here:
