Nalebinding - The Ancient Craft

For those following up on the post on the nalbinding research, there were not many resources to be found. The paper turned out to be a study in the history of Northern European knitting. What this means, anyone could say.

With an impending cross-country move, posts with be scarce, but there will be more to follow. Tune in around 10 June for a trial in the ancient art of nalbinding!

Stay crafty.

Nalebinding

I am researching nalebinding for a paper for an anthropology class. I have come across some interesting things. For example, this "one needle knitting" practice still exists in parts of the world outside the hippest of Western circles. Come back 16 May for the whole story.
