Issue 27 (March 2001) of the Complex Weavers Medieval Textiles Study Group newsletter, coordinated by Nancy M. McKenna. It covers the 2001 sample exchange, members' replies to a survey, and an essay on making modern clothing from medieval-draft cloth. The bulk is a long compiled article on women's clothing in Kievan Rus (10th-15th centuries), covering garments, headdresses, jewelry, fabrics, dyes, embroidery and footwear. It also includes Carolyn Priest-Dorman's article on warp-float weaves with deflected wefts (Wabengewebe) with drafts for Alladorf 60 and Jorvik 1336, and McKenna's article on Coptic textiles in North European graves with drafts, sources, and upcoming exhibitions.
