/* Stripes */
*Birka, Sweden: A woollen tabby weave fragment was found in Grave 1090 with 5mm wide stripes in alternating blue and redish-brown coloured threads. [GEIJER 1938: p.36]
 
*Netherlands: Different coloured threads were used to create stripes or blocks in the fabric. Macroscopally this has been observed in 5 textiles, but thread analysis suggests it might have been done more often. [BRANDENBURG 2009: p. 49]
