I’m so glad you found my instructions clear and easy to understand. Good luck with your nalbinding!
I'm so excited. I started again with video 1, felted in my second piece of yarn just before closing the circle and was able to close the circle and work almost all the way round. Even though I got tangled up with a few stitches, your clear explanations of how to "pick up" the work and find which loop is on the thumb helped me figure out which loop was which (sometimes by unstiching just one stitch). You are an amazing teacher! I'm hooked!!!
I’m so glad it’s coming together for you!
I have tried learning Nålbinding many times with little luck. Your teaching has made it look super easy.. Thank you!! 😁
You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy learning!
You can use F2 or b1 and b2(front. 2,1new and 1 old) back 1(you pick up the edge from back to front needle pointing towards yourself. Greetings from America.
Hi Max,
Correct - there are several different types of connections. For the Oslo stitch though, we tend to use an F1 connection. For beginners, this is also the easiest connection to get your head around, which is why I chose to demonstrate it.
Can nalbinding be worked flat in rows instead of in spiraling rounds?
Yes you can work it in rows. You can turn the work back on itself, skip the first few stitches on the previous row, and then connect. Bear in mind that the edges may look a bit uneven, so it’s often good to do a row of stitching around the edge of a finished flat piece of nalbinding to neaten it up.
