Viking Nalbinding livestream will be at 18:30 (Norway time) TODAY this week. We’ll post a link as soon as we can.

We’re currently playing Musical Chairs on the train from Leeds. PLENTY of room for some public Nalbinding! 😅

Many Norwegians are confused as to why they decided to put a “?after “Bergen”. I still don’t know, but a working theory is that it will strike up a conversation. 🤷‍♀️Tbh, to myself and many others, the “?” is just annoying. Karl’s animated face always makes things a bit more fun though. 🤪

Nalbinding with multiple threads can be tricky at first but it allows you to burn though thin yarn and experiment with the effects 🤓♥️ It makes a nice, squishy fabric too! 😍

Join the addiction! 😈 You have every reason to try it too because you have stash yarn and can get away with using a darning needle. 👍. I’d suggest a thick, wool yarn that you don’t like to start. You can do it! 😍

Yes. You CAN nalbind on a plane. But then again, I also bring blunt needles… 😅 🧶 🪡

There aren’t too many finds; but, based on 1 that still had hair and the hairstyles depicted in carvings, this one is pretty good: images.app.goo.gl/8nbRy8Kba1v6...

I nalbound a hat to go with the wristwarmers. The ombré effect is achieved by using 3 thinner yarns and slowly shifting out one of threads at a time. 🧶

I found a Grå Nisse sweater at a thrift store about 15 years ago but it was too small for my girls. I finally got around to reclaiming the wool from it. The sweater was worked with triple yarn which I split and nalbound this cowl:
