Rated 3.8 out of 5 — 4 verified reviews
Nalbinding is a very old technique for creating items of clothing and other textiles using a single needle and thread. It was largely superseded by knitting and crochet, but has survived because of its amazing qualities when it comes to warmth and durability. Nålbinding can be dated back to the at least the Viking Age in Scandinavia, but some finds may date back even further on the continent. In this booklet you will be shown step by step instruction on simple nålbinding techniques. It is designed to be used while holding the needle and thread in your hand and following the instructions one step at a time.
In this, the expanded third edition of Nålbindning, you will find:
Nusse Mellgren has a background in arts & crafts and has spent most of her life as an re-enacter of the Viking age. Her skills in fighting with a axe is only surpassed by her skills in Nalbindning.
Overall rating: 3.2 / 5 from 5 reviews.
Review topics: [].
"I bought this specifically because the description said there were sweater instructions, but there is no mention of sweaters anywhere in this book. It is extremely expensive for not really having any information. DO NOT get this book for sweater instructions, because there aren't any."
"This isn't much more than a minimal pamphlet. There is so much more to Nallbinding than the single stitch that is presented here. Very expensive for what is in these few pages."
"I'm new to yarn working and started with crochet, Tunisian crochet and now Nalbindning. This book helped me ""get it"" and also helps connect other methods of yarn work so no brain space is wasted or overloaded. I think this is going to be fun with a bit more practice."
"I bought the book mostly out of curiosity about the origins of knitting and the thought that maybe one of my early Scandinavian ancestors knew hoe to do it."
"This turned out to be extremely overpriced nothing. Sorry to say the info was very sad. Everything is on youtube for free and more easily understandable. The sole purpose of buying the book was for the sweater technique but it was totally removed from this revision. Don't waste your money. It has been a long time since I was this disappointed with a purchase. The Woolery was awesome as usual even during the ""pandemic"". Great customer care and shipping. The Woolery gets 5 stars. I will keep coming back to them when I need something."
