Absolutely fascinating to watch. Totally mesmerised. I don’t craft, but you made this look easy, I know it isn’t, but you are very easy to follow and listen to. Thank you.
Marion you truly are a wonderfully kind human being, how many righties would consider the lefties. Truly love your honesty and how you present your videos 😊
Well, I just thought there's be less people interested if I didn't explain it rightie way around. As a leftie I think you get used to having to think of a mirror image of a technique you're trying to learn. Thanks so much for the appreciation.
Thank you Marion. Such an interesting heritage craft. I must follow it up and see the 'York' stitch (where I was born). Today I discovered that there is a rose called 'Jean' so two new facts learnt.😊
Yes, I think originally the Coppergate sock was though to be knitting of some kind. But then people realised it was something different. York Stitch is the stitch used to make it.
Thank you for sharing this old craft for us to try out and keep it from being lost. Ill bet i will be very ackward to start but I will give it a try. ❤
You might feel all fingers and thumbs at the very beginning, but you'll soon get the hang of it. Once you're going it becomes more obvious where to put the needle. Good luck.
Thank you. So much easier to learn from someone left-handed like me. I also appreciate the oversize single-ply yarn which makes learning the stitch a breeze. You are really good at explaining things!
Thank you. It is helpful on things like this if something is shown the same way around. Although, as lefties, we sort of get used to having to work it out!
I think you did a marvelous job of teaching this method. I have watched this before from other teachers and it looked too confusing. For one thing they used such small thread, you really could not see exactly what they were doing. Now i feel ready to go ahead with it. I need another belt purse, a so called fanny pouch. That is my purse of choice, and the one I have is getting a bit long in the tooth. i am already thinking of adaptations of using smaller thread for inside or outside pockets. I Will be having FUN with nalbinding now!! Thank you!
Thank you for introducing me to a totally new craft. I’m very impressed that you showed us how to do it for us righties! I tried to teach my left handed daughter to crochet but had to get up and send her to a UA-cam tutorial 😂. Look forward to your videos every week. They cheer me up, inspire and delight me. ❤
This is fascinating. I'd never even heard of nalbinding. I've never been able to master crochet or knitting but I think I could actually do this technique. I'll have to find something other than wool to use though, Thanks for sharing and teaching us!
I'm glad you enjoyed it Sue. You can use acrylic yarn without a problem. You'd just have to use a Russian join, which would be the least noticeable or even just a knot if you didn't mind working in the ends. I hope you do have a go. It's such an interesting craft to learn and the resultant fabric is unlike anything else.
I've watched at least 15 tutorials on the oslo stitch, and yours was the one that finally cracked it for me. no wonder mothers would traditionally make these for their kids' marriage chests, it's been quite the process. thank you so much!
I find your explanation of the notations of 1+1 and F1 far better & easier to understand than any other videos about nalbind! Even being someone that knows how to nalbind, I'm finding a deeper understanding of the techniques by watching & listening to you explain to us. Really brilliant job! Already liked & subscribed 🥰 I truly hope you'll make more videos on Nalbinding & how to make Nalbind things. It was nearly a lost craft & it's so important to share this knowledge so it will not only survive but thrive. ❤
Thank you so much. I really appreciate this message and am so pleased I explained it well. As a left hander I really found it difficult to understand when I first started. It was ages before I understood what the notation actually meant, because the videos I watched seemed to expect that you already knew. I was thinking about making a hat but just haven't got around to it yet. Happy Nalbinding to you!
As one who teaches, I am quite pleased to find a good video to recommend to my students for follow up. There are so few for lefties, and fewer still which cover both at once, plus so much other material. Thank you.
Thanks Mindy. I wasn't sure I could actually do it right handed, but I realised the righties would probably not watch if I only showed the left handed way 😊
A few years ago my family went up north to Newfoundland to L'Anse Meadows to see the Viking Settlement there. I purchased a needle for just this craft. So now I'm retired from a lifelong nursing career lm going to have a bash at this. I'm so glad l found your channel, Marion. Your accent reminds me of my friend from Stoke on Trent!. All the best of Nova Scotia xoxoxo
I'm pleased you've enjoyed watching Alison. It really isn't that hard to learn. Once you get the idea of behind or on your thumb. It's such an interesting craft to learn, with a lot of history to find out about too.
Just as you were taught by a right handed person I think I'll end up nalbinding left handed. 😂 Every time I see a new craft from you I'm " Oh I've got to try that". At present I'm finishing your advent star bunting.
Oh I'm so happy you've made it.. Maybe yours will end up like mine..being added to each year with a special ornament to hang up as well as the number ☺️🌲
Thank you for this tutorial. I have watch a lot of nalbinding videos and I have been successful at making a chain but I think it was mostly due to luck. Your video actually helped me understand the structure of the stitch which makes it so much easier for me to understand what I'm doing.
This is easily the best nålbinding tutorial on UA-cam, I’ve only just started so everything is far too loose and uneven haha but this is so clear in comparison to other videos, thank you 🥰
Oh my goodness thank you for that. Although I do know there are plenty of people with so much more experience than I have... I do love doing it though and carry that pouch every day!
Hi from Australia Marion...I'm truly fascinated with this technique & never heard of this craft before. (been crafting for over 50 years). Thank you for your wonderful demonstration. I found it very easy to understand & definitely going to try this. Your bags are beautiful.🥰
Ooh... You'll like it I'm sure. It's probably more difficult to think about whilst watching, than actually doing it. Also please look at the channel I linked. Her tutorials on all the different stitches are how I learned.
Isn’t it lovely to know another heritage craft is making a comeback. I must admit I have never heard of this craft but it was so lovely to see it demonstrated, great demonstration Marion, very easy to follow. Once again, thank you for sharing x
Marion, I am a lefty having trouble with knitting & Crochet. This method is inspiring. I am looking forward to trying this. Thank you for sharing. I have watched all your videos from your very first, am awed by your talent.☺💐
I've just seen this Janet and popped on to say that there'll be a knitting video coming soon and I've got good methods for lefties I think☺️ How do you usually knit? Are you a thrower or picker?
😊 You don't have to stitch it left handed way round.... I showed how to stitch it right handed too. Or click on the link I gave and it will take you to a right handed tutorial. It's definitely well worth learning as it's such a different way of making in comparison to knitting or crochet... Happy nalbinding 🪡😊
It nearly dies out as a craft once knitting and crochet took over. I suppose once you could work off the ball knitting really took off. But nalbinding makes such a different feel. It's worth giving it a try to see the difference..
I love the old crafts and glad some people in the world are keeping them alive. I have finally got a tighter weave than my first few rows using oslo stitch. I found it difficult to source wool and needles. I ordered wool from Lithuania and needles from Estonia. Service was excellent. I’m attempting a pouch now. ❤🇦🇺🦘
Absolutely! Once you've got the idea of where the needle goes... you'll find it easier to do than you think. It's one if those things that sounds more complicated than it is to do.👍 Happy nalbinding...
Absolutely marvellous, thank you. Being left handed, is has been a bit of a struggle to find relevant tuition, but finally manage Oslo and York stiches. I had about given up on finding how to craft a strap, how to turn - and there you are. You also show a stich new to me, and explain the F2 type runic codes. As you said in your intro, you are, indeed, good at explaining and demonstrating. So pleased! Thank you again
Thank you so much. I really appreciate you saying you found my explanations good. The stitch notation I suppose is like knitting etc.. Once you know it then you can see what is expected. But just like someone who can't read a knitting or crochet pattern.. it's all nonsense until you learn to read it. It's just a matter of learning and that's what I like to do!
Great tutorial, Marion.. 👏I love Naalbinding. It’s my Pocket Project, because it’s so portable - so little paraphernalia to cart around. It’s like crochet it that respect. I whittled my own needles too, which in itself is a little addictive 🤭..and very rewarding to do. To date (I started during lockdown) I’ve made a couple of hats, some little sockettes, socks, a pair of mittens, a cup / beaker / bottle band (which was my first attempt at making a pair of wristies but I didn’t start with enough stitches or anticipate how tight the weave would be, so…) I’ve also got a bag that was my first attempt at a hat, that came out too small for the same reason. I just turned it upside down, and added a strap and closure😊. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Everybody should give it a go ❤ p.s I use hand lotion for the splicing. It works well,keeps my hands nice and soft & it makes my project smell nice while I’m working on it ☺️
Lovely to hear of all the projects you've made. I agree... everyone should give it a try 👍 Great tip about the hand lotion too... I wouldn't have thought of that 💐😊
@@marionsworld24 Thanks, Marion. 😊 It's not expensive either because I buy the lotion from Charity shops. I've bought some really lovely gift sets for very little money and the pretty boxes & ribbons can always be put to good use❤️
Hi, Marion. I love following your channel, and ever since you made your nalbinding needle I've been waiting for you to show us how to use it. Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. I'm anxious to have a go at it. 😊❤
Hola Marion,nunca habia visto esa forma de tejido, la verdad ,cada video de ti me asombras con tus cualidades 😊 y lo guarde para poder sacarlo 😊mira que tejo ,ganchillo, dis agujas ,macrame y un tejido que aprendi crochet de grampo, con gente de Brasil, con palitos ,pero asi con los dedos ,me dejas de boca abierta ,y lo voy a tratar de hacer, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos y experiencias 🤗
I hope you do try it Teresa. If you do all those other crafts you should have no problem in picking it up. It's easier to do yourself than watch someone doing it. Nalbinding isn't knitting though... It was invented at least 2000 years before knitting 😊🧶
Thank you for this really nice tutorial and all the efforts you made to teach us a right-handed version ! This was lovely, and I shared it with my sister who's a leftie =) I also really loved the video you linked showing how to make our own needles, it made me want to try it for myself ! =)
I know... we get used to having to work it all out ourselves. Actually there are some leftie instructions on Neulakintaat. If you follow the link from my video.
Thank you for introducing this new craft to all of us! I just found you because of your special quilting technique and have been binging your videos! I doubt that I would ever be able to teach anything left-handed. My left hand is hopeless. I appreciate that you taught this right-handed! Bravo ❣️
Thank you for this nalbinding tutorial. I have some wooden needles that I never used. Put away and forgotten about. I’m definitely going to take them out and follow your tutorial, so clear that I should be able to do it.😊
Hi Marion. What a lovely technique, I hadn't heard of Nailbinding before. Your bag turned out beautifully, thanks so much for sharing, really love the tight weave it creates. 🪡💖🧶
Wonderful video. Looks easy, but maybe its not😅 I will certainly have a try. And totally awesome of you to do it with your right hand. You are truly amazing 😊
People do call this Viking knitting. But as you will have seen it's nothing at all like knitting or crochet... Well worth learning though. Another fibre technique to add to the rest 😊
How adorable is this wee pouch! Marion, if you start taking orders, please sign me up!!!!! You should really consider selling them…. MW Pouch (Marion’s World Pouch). The embroidery detail was also soooo pretty!
Another wonderful set of instructions! I have been watching all of your videos while I knit the five pair of socks that are on my Christmas to- make list- great entertainment indeed! I have a feeling that I’ll be catching up on bird pages while I watch you do your Christmas to-make videos- hopefully we will both get all of our projects done by December 25 !! You are such pleasant company- thank you! So glad to see 2000 subscribers and counting! I look forward to seeing what you are up to three times a week- how you get all of it done is a miracle!
You could make a pair of nalbinding socks! That's the most usual thing people make, along with mittens and hats. I think I'll be making mostly foodie presents this year.
You explain this nailbinding very well Marion. I looked for videos when you are making the needle and told about nailbinding a few weeks ago. I thought: that is something I don't want to do. But now I think: maybe I give it a try. Next year 🤗because I have some quilts to finish before the end of this year. Doing something with your right hand must be difficult , you are not use to it. But it worked very good. Have a nice weekend.
Thanks a lot Marjan... I'm pleased I've made you think you might give nalbinding a try... The more people learning to do it the better! Sounds like you have a lot of quilting to do...
Yes, to many quilts, because I like the patchwork but the quilting not so much.😆But first I need to make a cat, the way you made the birds. My niece wedding is 23 nov. and I want to make her cat with fabric and embrodery.
Hi Marion, well that's a new one on me, what a great idea and it's lovely that you can show us this heritage craft in your own style. You make it look easy and you explained the process well. Thanks for sharing, Helen
@marionsworld24 I gave it a go last night...I think I'll try it with more wool yarn maybe stiffer yarn I just had some acrylic on hand...it was very floppy so I'll find some stiffer wool. I do felting and crotchet and making cakes and leatherwork so I don't know how much I can keep alive. But I'll certainly give it a small go. I have a whole museum of her and my great grandmother stuff to curate photos and craft works .
Marion, first time here. I've seen this fabric before, its quite fascinating to watch you. I actually thought it was done on a type of loom. I may give it a try. I think it's equally easy right or left handed, especially since I knit both ways as well. Thans for sharing this old craft. Its important to not let the old ways go. I'm betting this was developed by someone that didn't like knitting or crochet. Looks very sturdy and nothing will fall out of your pouch. Great job 😊
Welcome to my channel Teri 😊 I'm so happy you liked the nalbinding... It's a very ancient craft that predates knitting and crochet by a very long time! The earliest nalbinding was found in Egypt. It's around 4000 years old. I think knitting is around 1000 years old.... It's not difficult to learn and makes a really strong woven fabric. Let me know how you get on if you give it a go 😊🪡
@@marionsworld24 Wow, so interesting. I thought it came after knitting, but it makes sense it would be first. I look forward to seeing more of your channel. 😊
Marion, this time you got me, I would have the largest knot you would ever want to see OR my fingers would be tied up in knots. 😘 I do love the hand bag, wish I could do one.
Loved that ! Will definitely be watching again whilst I try it . I’m Not very good at these sort of things ( knitting and crochet), but I feel like I might be able to do this 😂. Any other suggestions of very simple things to make ? I hate practicing, I like to learn by making something, very childlike 😁. Thank you as always, selfishly very glad you started this channel as I love to watch ! xx
I never 'practice' either Yvonne. You might as well spend your practice time actually making something in my opinion. It's all learning in the end. Most people would start with a hat or a mitten. Then socks. For a hat you would start with a circular start. There are videos on Neulakintaat showing you that. Then just keep working your spiral until it's the size you want! Good luck...
Thanks Marion. A really interesting craft. Love your needle. A lovely pouch. When I am up to date with everything I will have to have a go at this. Could it be done with a lighter weight wool?
Definitely Christine. I just used this thick yarn as it's a good weight for the pouch and it was easier to show too. A wool rich yarn is preferable so you can felt the ends together. You'll still be using your thumb as a gauge so you'll get a different feel of fabric. It's just a matter of giving it a go really. Once you've done a chain you can get an idea of your gauge.
The blue wool is a roving from West Yorkshire Spinners. They have a website and the yarn I used is called Re:treat. I used about half a ball along with the raspberry yarn. But I don't remember where I got that from.
Yes! Neulakintaat & Ylva the Red both here on UA-cam are the two wonderful ladies that taught me to Nålbind. I'm so glad your channel showed up on my recommended feed today. Liked & subscribed! ☺ Edited to ask what wool are you using??? I love roving (single ply) & struggle to find any that will felt properly to use for nålbind projects. I love the look of it. If possible, I'd love a link to where you got it. 🙏❤
This is a chunky roving called Re:Treat by West Yorkshire Spinners. I got it when I was at a wool show a few years ago. They should be online though I think.
It's a single ply roving called Re-Treat by West Yorkshire Spinners. Anything that's will wet splice together will be good to use. I used this thick yarn because of making the pouch. But finer yarn can make anything you want to 😊
Absolutely fascinating to watch. Totally mesmerised. I don’t craft, but you made this look easy, I know it isn’t, but you are very easy to follow and listen to. Thank you.
It's easier to do yourself than to watch me explain it. Once you're actually doing the actions it's easy to see how it all works.
Thank you Marion, very easy instructions. I am on my second row as I have been watching and love the technique. ❤
Oh I'm so happy you're trying it. I find it's a lovely craft to do. So different from the usual... I'd be interested in how you get along with it...☺️
Marion you truly are a wonderfully kind human being, how many righties would consider the lefties. Truly love your honesty and how you present your videos 😊
Well, I just thought there's be less people interested if I didn't explain it rightie way around. As a leftie I think you get used to having to think of a mirror image of a technique you're trying to learn. Thanks so much for the appreciation.
Another beautiful craft demonstration, its a craft I'd not heard of before , I will look out for some wool to give it a try thanks again Marion ❤
Excellent.. :)

I have a board on Pinterest for nalbinding. I had no idea how it was done, so thank you once again for your expertise 🥰🥰
Ooh .. you'll have to start something now!
I think you did a marvelous job of teaching this method. I have watched this before from other teachers and it looked too confusing.

From a fellow leftie, thank you for showing this. I find it hard to follow right handed videos- so glad I found your channel!
Hurrah for lefties!
I love those yarns too! And thanks for the explanation, you are a good teacher, Marion. Thanks! Love!
Wow! Thank you for explaining this so clearly, Marion. How exciting. Your bag is beautiful!

Love watching your vlogs you are such a kind natured lady ❤
Thanks a lot Emma. And thanks for watching too!
I immediately got the technique of how to do the stitch with your left hand. First time I understood how to do this. Thank you for sharing this
That's brilliant Connie. I hope you have a go yourself...it's really satisfying to do.
That was a wonderfully clear explanation for us right handed folk Marion.
Thank you for your fabulous video ❤

Great tutorial, Marion.. 👏I love Naalbinding. It’s my Pocket Project, because it’s so portable - so little paraphernalia to cart around. It’s like crochet it that respect.
I whittled my own needles too, which in itself is a little addictive 🤭..and very rewarding to do. To date (I started during lockdown) I’ve made a couple of hats, some little sockettes, socks, a pair of mittens, a cup / beaker / bottle band (which was my first attempt at making a pair of wristies but I didn’t start with enough stitches or anticipate how tight the weave would be, so…) I’ve also got a bag that was my first attempt at a hat, that came out too small for the same reason. I just turned it upside down, and added a strap and closure😊. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Everybody should give it a go ❤
p.s I use hand lotion for the splicing. It works well,keeps my hands nice and soft & it makes my project smell nice while I’m working on it ☺️
Lovely to hear of all the projects you've made. I agree... everyone should give it a try 👍 Great tip about the hand lotion too... I wouldn't have thought of that 💐😊
@@marionsworld24 Thanks, Marion. 😊 It's not expensive either because I buy the lotion from Charity shops. I've bought some really lovely gift sets for very little money and the pretty boxes & ribbons can always be put to good use❤️
Hi, Marion. I love following your channel, and ever since you made your nalbinding needle I've been waiting for you to show us how to use it. Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. I'm anxious to have a go at it. 😊❤
You'll have to let me know how it goes Sheila...
Thank you so much! I really enjoyed this video tutorial!
Hola Marion,nunca habia visto esa forma de tejido, la verdad ,cada video de ti me asombras con tus cualidades 😊 y lo guarde para poder sacarlo 😊mira que tejo ,ganchillo, dis agujas ,macrame y un tejido que aprendi crochet de grampo, con gente de Brasil, con palitos ,pero asi con los dedos ,me dejas de boca abierta ,y lo voy a tratar de hacer, gracias por compartir tus conocimientos y experiencias 🤗
I hope you do try it Teresa. If you do all those other crafts you should have no problem in picking it up. It's easier to do yourself than watch someone doing it.
Nalbinding isn't knitting though... It was invented at least 2000 years before knitting 😊🧶
Wonderful video! Thank you so much. I've done most other yarn crafts, so I will certainly have to try this. Susan in Georgia, US. 🧡
That's brilliant Susan We need to keep these old crafts alive and well 😊🪡
This is so wonderful. I haven't heard of this before. Thank you for sharing.
I hope you feel like giving it a try 🪡😊
Another wonderful tutorial on something I have never heard of before. Thank you
Thank you for this really nice tutorial and all the efforts you made to teach us a right-handed version ! This was lovely, and I shared it with my sister who's a leftie =) I also really loved the video you linked showing how to make our own needles, it made me want to try it for myself ! =)
I love it. I will give this a try after I finish my kiwandi. Thanks Marion
Hurrah!
Great new craft !! Great instructions!! Love your new bag
Thanks for the leftie video - love it and so rare to find.
I know... we get used to having to work it all out ourselves.
Actually there are some leftie instructions on Neulakintaat. If you follow the link from my video.
So interesting! Something I had not seen before!
It's such an ancient craft that it predates spinning... which is why it uses separate lengths of wool 🧶
Wonderful tutorial! I think I can try now! You are a great teacher!
Thanks Diana.
Thank you for introducing this new craft to all of us! I just found you because of your special quilting technique and have been binging your videos! I doubt that I would ever be able to teach anything left-handed. My left hand is hopeless. I appreciate that you taught this right-handed! Bravo ❣️
Well I tried my best thank you. 😊
Thank you for this nalbinding tutorial. I have some wooden needles that I never used. Put away and forgotten about. I’m definitely going to take them out and follow your tutorial, so clear that I should be able to do it.😊
I'm sure you will. It looks more complicated watching it than actually doing it I think 😊🪡
Hi Marion. What a lovely technique, I hadn't heard of Nailbinding before. Your bag turned out beautifully, thanks so much for sharing, really love the tight weave it creates. 🪡💖🧶
Lovely !!! So many different crafts that you do !!! Truly enjoy you !!!
There's loads more! I like everything... :)
@@marionsworld24 I can see that !🩷🪡🧵
Thank you so much!! That was super cool!! I love it!! ❤
:)
Wonderful video. Looks easy, but maybe its not😅 I will certainly have a try.
And totally awesome of you to do it with your right hand. You are truly amazing 😊
I tried my best! Because I thought no-one would watch if it was just showing left handed.. 😊
So interesting, Marion! My niece is fond of all things Scandinavian (read Viking!) and I’m going to show this craft to her. Thank you.
People do call this Viking knitting. But as you will have seen it's nothing at all like knitting or crochet... Well worth learning though. Another fibre technique to add to the rest 😊
You are amazing! It will take me a bit for that one
You are so clever thank you for sharing
Excellent. Im glad I found your channel.
Welcome. Hope you continue to enjoy watching 😊
How adorable is this wee pouch! Marion, if you start taking orders, please sign me up!!!!! You should really consider selling them…. MW Pouch (Marion’s World Pouch). The embroidery detail was also soooo pretty!
Thanks Cris.. :)
I love this
❤️never heard of this😊
Another wonderful set of instructions! I have been watching all of your videos while I knit the five pair of socks that are on my Christmas to- make list- great entertainment indeed! I have a feeling that I’ll be catching up on bird pages while I watch you do your Christmas to-make videos- hopefully we will both get all of our projects done by December 25 !! You are such pleasant company- thank you! So glad to see 2000 subscribers and counting! I look forward to seeing what you are up to three times a week- how you get all of it done is a miracle!
You could make a pair of nalbinding socks! That's the most usual thing people make, along with mittens and hats. I think I'll be making mostly foodie presents this year.
You explain this nailbinding very well Marion. I looked for videos when you are making the needle and told about nailbinding a few weeks ago. I thought: that is something I don't want to do. But now I think: maybe I give it a try. Next year 🤗because I have some quilts to finish before the end of this year. Doing something with your right hand must be difficult , you are not use to it. But it worked very good. Have a nice weekend.
Thanks a lot Marjan... I'm pleased I've made you think you might give nalbinding a try... The more people learning to do it the better! Sounds like you have a lot of quilting to do...
Yes, to many quilts, because I like the patchwork but the quilting not so much.😆But first I need to make a cat, the way you made the birds. My niece wedding is 23 nov. and I want to make her cat with fabric and embrodery.
Hi Marion, well that's a new one on me, what a great idea and it's lovely that you can show us this heritage craft in your own style. You make it look easy and you explained the process well. Thanks for sharing, Helen
Thanks Helen.
My granny made hats and they were this pattern of stich i always wondered how she did it cos it was not a crotchet stich i recognised but this was it!
Hurrah I'm pleased I've enabled you to find it.... and possibly.... learn to do it yourself to keep your granny's tradition alive?🤔
@marionsworld24 I gave it a go last night...I think I'll try it with more wool yarn maybe stiffer yarn I just had some acrylic on hand...it was very floppy so I'll find some stiffer wool. I do felting and crotchet and making cakes and leatherwork so I don't know how much I can keep alive. But I'll certainly give it a small go. I have a whole museum of her and my great grandmother stuff to curate photos and craft works

Marion, first time here. I've seen this fabric before, its quite fascinating to watch you. I actually thought it was done on a type of loom. I may give it a try. I think it's equally easy right or left handed, especially since I knit both ways as well. Thans for sharing this old craft. Its important to not let the old ways go. I'm betting this was developed by someone that didn't like knitting or crochet. Looks very sturdy and nothing will fall out of your pouch. Great job 😊
Welcome to my channel Teri 😊
I'm so happy you liked the nalbinding...
It's a very ancient craft that predates knitting and crochet by a very long time! The earliest nalbinding was found in Egypt. It's around 4000 years old. I think knitting is around 1000 years old....
It's not difficult to learn and makes a really strong woven fabric. Let me know how you get on if you give it a go 😊🪡
@@marionsworld24 Wow, so interesting. I thought it came after knitting, but it makes sense it would be first. I look forward to seeing more of your channel. 😊
Marion, this time you got me, I would have the largest knot you would ever want to see OR my fingers would be tied up in knots. 😘 I do love the hand bag, wish I could do one.
It's a lot easier than you would think. Easier to do it than to watch it....
Loved that ! Will definitely be watching again whilst I try it . I’m
Not very good at these sort of things ( knitting and crochet), but I feel like I might be able to do this 😂. Any other suggestions of very simple things to make ? I hate practicing, I like to learn by making something, very childlike 😁. Thank you as always, selfishly very glad you started this channel as I love to watch ! xx
I never 'practice' either Yvonne. You might as well spend your practice time actually making something in my opinion. It's all learning in the end. Most people would start with a hat or a mitten. Then socks. For a hat you would start with a circular start. There are videos on Neulakintaat showing you that. Then just keep working your spiral until it's the size you want! Good luck...
@@marionsworld24 thank you xx
Thanks Marion. A really interesting craft. Love your needle. A lovely pouch. When I am up to date with everything I will have to have a go at this. Could it be done with a lighter weight wool?
Definitely Christine. I just used this thick yarn as it's a good weight for the pouch and it was easier to show too. A wool rich yarn is preferable so you can felt the ends together. You'll still be using your thumb as a gauge so you'll get a different feel of fabric. It's just a matter of giving it a go really. Once you've done a chain you can get an idea of your gauge.
This is so lovely. Thank you! Please could you tell me where in the uk to buy the wool from? ❤
The blue wool is a roving from West Yorkshire Spinners. They have a website and the yarn I used is called Re:treat. I used about half a ball along with the raspberry yarn. But I don't remember where I got that from.
Yes! Neulakintaat & Ylva the Red both here on UA-cam are the two wonderful ladies that taught me to Nålbind. I'm so glad your channel showed up on my recommended feed today. Liked & subscribed! ☺ Edited to ask what wool are you using??? I love roving (single ply) & struggle to find any that will felt properly to use for nålbind projects. I love the look of it. If possible, I'd love a link to where you got it. 🙏❤
This is a chunky roving called Re:Treat by West Yorkshire Spinners. I got it when I was at a wool show a few years ago. They should be online though I think.
Brilliant I have so enjoyed this where do you get your yarn from ?
The blue yarn is by a company called West Yorkshire Spinners. It is called Re-Treat. I think I got it at a yarn show.
Amazing! What yarn are you using please? x
It's a single ply roving called Re-Treat by West Yorkshire Spinners. Anything that's will wet splice together will be good to use. I used this thick yarn because of making the pouch. But finer yarn can make anything you want to 😊
Lefty nalbinder? Subscribed. 🙂
Excellent!..thank you. And I hope you enjoy your nalbinding too 🤞
I admire you but its too much for my simplistic brain ❤
🙂
That was a wonderfully clear explanation for us right handed folk Marion.
Thank you for your fabulous video ❤
