I finished the scarf that I've been working on for ages! (Any project that starts with casting on 400 stitches deserves a party at the end.) Actually, I...
Wow, What great work!!! Some day I hope to do something half as good and half that size. Wonderful Debb ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
It's gorgeous--and if I ever get up the nerve to cast on 400 stitches, I'll post the caterpillar...seriously, it's lovely work and thanks for sharing! Susan...
Yea! I've been away from this site for about 6 mos. or so... frustrated with myself for not being able to figure out this age old technique. I saw Bill...
I suggest you do a search on "videos" or look through the Links--there have been some recent nalbinding videos that I've found very helpful as a beginner....
... I looked at the photos - Looks great! You must have fulled it a lot. Did you measure how much shrinkage? You also give your own (rather harsh, may I add)...
It looks absolutely amazing! So you felted/fulled it afterwards? Weren't you afraid to loose the beauty of the stitch itself with that? ( just asking because I...
... Thanks for reminding me of the chart. I had forgotten about it completely. And now that I've had some time to think about it, I have something more to add....
Ellen, thanks for sharing. I'm still new and experimenting, am nalbinding with some rather fine hemp yarn and trying to keep it from getting too tight...would...
Hemp? How do you add new yarn? Are you using a Russian join? I would love to nalbind with something other than wool, and am looking for the best join. ...
Hi Mary Frances, Just checking in on the nalbinding list after being gone for a month...When you said you "can't even reach the guy to get anything" did you...
Thank you all for your kind compliments! It's always nice to hear your work praised by people who know what went into it. :) I did full it, and I should have...

I go even slower using movies or tv... so I do my naalbinding and viking wire knitting to RenRadio (live365.com) or cd's.... I get al lot more done in a...
Greetings! It's time once again for me to recruit teachers for the SCA event Fiber, Fabric and Fighting IV. This year it will be held a week earlier, on...
Sorry, hope it's not too confusing to bundle some replies together: a.. Mary Frances, I'm beginning to wonder if Larry Schmitt is an urban legend--when someone...
I'm so distracted right now, I mis-read your question. I didn't use the Russian join on the hemp, I used the "spit" method that works for wool. So sorry!...
Wow! I can spit on hemp? My LYS has some beautiful hemp for knitting.....so you spit and rub like wool? Oh....gee....if this is true! I am so excited! I...
EEEKKKKK, Ottavia, I was wrong, I don't know why I'm communicating so poorly, just too distracted with the start of classes. No, I tried the "spit" method and...
Hi Pitty--Thank you so much for posting your Oslo Stitch teaching video!!! It is so clear, and I LOVE the way you start, much better than what I've always...
What a wonderful video. Your video has really helped me as I have no one near to teach me nalbinding. Would you mind posting the York stitch video again for...
