If you want to be a kern at the next fair or event this is the pattern you'll need. It goes over a leine (see the link) and makes the most perfect Gaelic impression. This is no cheap Ren fair pattern, but a seriously researched reconstruction. All the work is done for you. You need only cut and sew.
