Nålebinding !!! What is this? #nalebinding

#knitting - surely this is easier than #weaving ? Surely knitting, nålebinding & crochet came first? Who knows? It's all rotted away

#India #calico #shawls #pjyamas A complex history including The Calico Laws

Did people wear anything else under their nightshirts and nightdresses? Did bloomers exist before pyjamas? Were mens stockings made of knitting, nålebinding or crochet rather than woven

After a first failed attempt, I have successfully made a uhh... (don't say dick cozy, don't say dick cozy) a napkin ring!  

Next step is learning how to increase and decrease the amount of stitches I guess. Hopefully it won't be too different from knitting and crochet. 😅

And I should probably switch yarns. I noticed that this vintage 100% wool yarn claims to be moth proof and I don't think I want to be splicing lengths of it together with spit.

Did some naledinding for my Etsy shop for the first time, Oslo stitch, 100% Icelandic wool…satchel but also usable as cosy hand warmer 😉 #nalebinding #fibrearts #artandcraft @fibreart
📢 As a member of the Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers, I and some fellow members will give a demonstration for everyone interested in spinning, weaving and nalebinding at St Mary‘s Church in Walkley, Sheffield, on Saturday, 5th October from 10am to 3pm. Come along, it’s a lovely venue, and you can try your skills in drop spindle spinning and nalebinding if you fancy. See you there! @weaving @spinning #nalebinding @fibreart #sheffield
Spent my morning finishing my handspun Black Welsh yarn. Quite happy with it. Next step: thinking about what I want to nalebind from it 🙃 #nalebinding #spinning #fibreart @spinning @fibreart

I went to a mediaeval fair today.
Bought a needle from bone to do #nalebinding naaldbinden... (And a booklet explaining the basic stitches)

Will be an interesting new technique to try, a precursor to #knitting

Anyone with tips or good websites to learn?
