Uppsalastrumpan är så cool! Den har en öppning i sidan, den har broderi(!) längs kanten, den är medeltida(!) och hittades i ett område med flera nålbindningsrelaterade fynd, bl. a en jättefin nål med spetsig ände. Läs mer i boken "Söma, nåla, binda." av bl.a Linnéa Rothquist och Håkan Liby och utgiven av Upplandsmuseet. Jag har nålbundit några olika varianter, ovan en vit strumpa med mörk kant, som originalet.

The Uppsala sock is such a cool find! It has an opening on the side, it has embroidery around the edge and it is medieval and was found in an area with more needlebinding rekated finds, for example a lovely needle with a pointy back end. You can read more in the book "Söma, nåla. binda" in swedish, by Linnéa Rothquist and Håkan Liby and published by The Uppland Museum -Upplandsmuseet. I have made some variants inspired by the find, above a white sock with a dark embroidery along the edge, like the original.
