So, here we go... of course my new beast needed a garage, and here it is. Top grain naturally tanned leather, 3 mm, with a bit of modeling.
Apologies for the lousy photo..... but I guess the point is made;-). If you so will, inspired a tiny bit by the viking Mammen style of knotwork patterns, and I am not yet sure what story lies underneath, if you get me right;-) I know there is one, hidden in the pattern...:-).
Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.
