Quote:In Comitatus many are moving from plain red cloth clavii to tablet woven bands as they upgrade to new tunics. These are applied, rather than woven into the fabric, but I believe this is not unknown in finds - the idea is that the more costly decoration would be cut off & moved to the next tunic. it's certainly faster than hand embroidery.
Is tablet weave documentable? I read that they are exclusively tapestry-woven, much to my disappointment.
