r/Nalbinding

Hiya,

Still new to nalbinding (only know Oslo and York stitch), I wanted to make a tabaco pouch for my bf as he doesn't have one and I couldn't sleep for the life of me.

So I taught my self how to turn in Oslo stitch !

Here is how it turned out. Not perfect but very enjoyable to make ^^

If anyone has tips or tutorials for new stitches and techniques, I'm all for it !

Have a lovely Day !

Ps : This is Drops Snow Yarn, I ordered brown but got pink, an excuse to buy more lol. Great for beginners as it's thick and easy to felt. I recommend! I'm using a engraved bone needle from Celtic Webmerchant. For beginners, I'd recommend a non engraved one as it can sometimes be tricky.

​Proof that you can take your favorite ancient craft anywhere if you try hard enough.

Finish Stitch 2+2 F2 connection, this will be washing machine felted and become a bag of sorts

Needle by Kofsky customs

A friend asked me to fix his socks, but what stitch is it? The yarn’s a lot thinner than I usually use so it’s going to be fun to do

I got into nålebinding with the help of one of my friends, she tried to teach me the Oslo stitch, but when it came to connecting the stitches, she wasn't nearby, so I kind of freehanded it and got used to whatever weird method I ended up with. I then realized my method might not be typical after looking at other people's crafts.

So honestly I have no idea what the terminology is here - I only got into it this year. This is one singular glove that I made, I flipped it for the second picture.

It should be noted that it looks completely different on either side, it's very asymmetric. I know there's thousands of different stitches out there.

Just wondering how to define this one, or if anyone else is familiar with it.

Thank you.

What do you think? Have you tried this?

How I keep my yarn for Nalbinding when I travel. This is about 6 arms length.

I’m very happy to have finally finished this WIP I started months ago! Not my first time nalbinding a beanie with two colors and a round start, but it’s definitely the first time I didn’t mess up the increases at the top and make it look more like a beret. 😂 This is Finnish 2+2 stitch, btw.

If anyone is curious, I learned to make nalbound projects with two or more colors/yarn strands from the book With One Needle by Mervi Pasanen. I believe Sally Pointer’s newer book, Nalbinding: It’s Not Knitting, also has instructions on how to do this. I have only ever seen one older YouTube video on how to do this, from the Neulakinnas channel (https://youtu.be/PAHP937pI80). I am considering making a YouTube tutorial myself, just so there’s more material out there. If you would be interested in seeing this, please let me know!

Just playing with cup holder idea ( it started out as a hand warmer.)

Hi, I posted a few days ago about finishing my hat (https://www.reddit.com/r/Nalbinding/s/pXNnkUYrMq ) .

Well, it's finished. Pictures are from the side, top and inside. Thanks for the helpful advices! ❤️

I found this hat in an online shop. I doesn't ship to my country though. I am just starting nålbinding and only know the Oslo stich so far, but I thought I would give it a try.

I am guessing this is just going in rounds until the end, forming a tube which is stiched together at the top. (Seen that somewhere else.) Does anyone have any further ideas about how to go about this? Like what stich and connecting stitch might have been used?
