* Hedeby - Graves: Three graves (159/1960, 182-185, 27/1963) contained fragments of very fine blue linen with, in two cases red threads, in one case white threads creating small checks. The blue/ red cloth from grave 159/1960 was from a shirt, as was probably the blue/white cloth in grave 27/1963. The blue/red cloth in grave 182-185 was from a decorative band. [HAGG 1991, p. 212]

<tab> Multiple fragments of the same cloth in four layers was found in grave VI/1930. This cloth is a fine woollen chevron twill with a checker pattern formed by two light, probably linen, threads in the warp and weft. [HAGG 1991, p.241]
