Hey folks,
I've just picked up some fabric that I'll be using to make my first chiton over the holidays. The idea is to represent a Spartan hoplite during the Peloponnesian War era. I'd like to use the pin method suggested, but don't know exactly what fashion these pins should be? I assume they wouldn't be very small like typical sewing needles, and of course it would be ideal to get bronze ones. Anyone have any suggestions about where I can find some suitable pieces? Thanks!
