Thanks for sharing this! One thing I love about fiber crafts is just how far they reach back, and I can only imagine how connected one would feel to the ancestors engaging in nalbinding!

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

It really does feel incredibly special to be connected through the craft, there's something so grounding from practicing it!

Love, love this episode! Thank you for making it. I have my Viking fiber tools and can use the Lucet and Looms very well but never could picture or get the Nälbinding stitch down. Much easier to understand now from watching you do it! Priceless and appreciated. ♥️🍃

Oh thank you so much! How wonderful to spin and weave in this way, hopefully you can find a little more confidence in the lovely York stitch at least 😊🙏✨️

I personally like to use a slip knot to start working in the round. It ends up looking very similar to what you’re doing here :3

so cool. There is just something about ancient civilisations that is so exciting. Thanks for the video Kat!

Thank you so much! I really agree, the fact that we still do things in the same way today (or at least, we can if want!) is so special! ✨

You have no idea how excited I am for this video, I bought one of the needles for doing this at a yarn festival 5 years ago and haven't touched it since. I was just waiting for inspiration, you know? Thank you for being that inspiration!

Oh wowee, I am so glad that I could inspire you a touch! I hope that needle gets its time to shine now! ✨

This is great timing for me, as I have been interested in trying it for awhile but have been so confused by the thumb method. Thank you! Lovely hat, by the way. :)

I've been wanting to try Nälebinding for ever, got a book at Jorvik but ave not sourced a needle yet. I LOVE Jorvik. Have been multiple times, the sock blows my mind every single time.

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

I'll see if I can find where I got mine from, I'm definitely interested in making my own needle to try a few different shapes!

Aww I hope you give it a try, even with a tapestry needle you might already have! 🤭

@kazwahmelbourne9271 10 ай бұрын

Thank you so much for this brilliant podcast!! I loved it, very inspiring. And, thank you for the footage from the Jorvik centre. One day Ill get there, its a long way from Melbourne Australia. Loved all the bits and pieces you video'd and the descriptions. As I was watching you making the loops with your green wool I wondered if they made chain mail like that.... Anyhoo, many thanks!!

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

Hiii and thank you so much! It's such a joy to be able to share it literally across the world! I guess if you could think of a good joining method and had tough hands, you could use some kind of metal lengths to give it a go! 😍

@helenlayley 10 ай бұрын

Nålbindning - you can have a try with a lolly stick! Just drill a small hole and sand it well.

@helenlayley 10 ай бұрын

I usually start (Viking market) visitors off with a wrist warmer or fingerless glove, with a thumb hole. No increases or decreases on those!

between your hair today and your top you were really giving Laudna in this video. This was so cool to learn about this, I love ancient fibre arts and i'd love to give this a go some time. Have you ever tried tablet weaving/card weaving? I think you'd really enjoy it. It's another ancient fiber art that shows up a lot in the archeological record and it requires very little equipment to try, you can even diy most of it if you are so inclined. I picked it up a few months ago and it's really fun

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

🖤✨ Thank you for the Laudna love! I have actually very recently taken up tablet weaving and I'm actually patiently waiting for Alex to have some free time to dye up some fibre for my next project. I'm incredibly new but so far I've found it to be equally soothing and gentle! How do you find it?

@mokepemberley4525 4 ай бұрын

This was so interesting! Thank you for showing how it is done and the exhibit. I agree it really helps to mix things up in crafting so you can feel refreshed when you return to a project. Also! Your teas sound so good! ☕️Do you make your own blends?

@mikelafiddle 10 ай бұрын

Wooo i just bought the manx and silk blend. I have manx heritage and I've always wanted to spin some manx sheep fiber but was worried about the scratch factor. That blend sounds heavenly. Please update us on the project you have planned for that spin!

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

Oh wow, that's so exciting! The blend truly is gorgeous! I think this week will share the project I hope to incorporate the yarn into! (spoiler: it's the Galdor by Marina Skua) 💚

Hopefully by the time you see this comment, you will have discovered that York stitch is one of the twistier stitches. Happy nalbinding!

I see here in Sweden, the older ladies do nåldbindning. I really want to learn it because it is way warmer than knitting or crochet

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

It really does seem to create lovely dense fabric, I love the little hand warmers I've seen, those seem perfect for keeping warm, while making more crafty things!

@@kattweaver yes and the socks are stunning. Tomorrow i go to a wooly festival, i will see if the have those socks and take a picture for you.

Hello again, Ephemera in Eugene, Oregon. I hope that you may share my Interest in a fable about a village with one needle. I hesrd it once, but am not able to find it currently. It might be fun to incorporate it during my classes, for adults as well as children. Briefly, we follow the consequences of losing the communal needle.ever heard of it? Cheers!

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

I haven't heard of the full fable but I have heard it mentioned in the past, I'll see if I can do some digging and find it, I love the idea of a travelling needle (also travelling spindle!) ✨

@WyrdHag 10 ай бұрын

Just a heads up if you wanna say it correctly: the Norwegian letter Å is NOT pronounced like an A. Its pronounced as the O in the english word "on". Å and A are two different letters, with different sounds. Its more respectful to just say needle binding than to butcher the Norwegian pronunciation (nål means needle)

@kattweaver 10 ай бұрын

Thank you so much! I did know this but have recently been to a museum and the crafting reenactor pronounced it that way and it must have stuck! l will remember for the future and pin this useful comment to the to help others 😊 It's always hard trying to do multiple things at once but that shouldn't have slipped 🙏

@mossy.andthemoon 10 ай бұрын

Honest question: how would one respectfully (or necessarily..i e. Immigrants) learn the language, if it's disrespectful to mispronounce words? Are they just asked to speak English?

@mossy.andthemoon 10 ай бұрын

I understand this context is different, but as a language teacher and learner this comment truly opened a curiosity about this. Especially as I've heard this about people learning German and French as well.

@isithometimeyet6553 10 ай бұрын

@@mossy.andthemoon You make a valid point there.👍 Hey I get offended when Americans say "aluminum and 'erbs" in their version of English. However, I cope.😀

@WyrdHag 10 ай бұрын

@@mossy.andthemoonI think there is a difference between someone genuinely trying to learn a language, and someone who just casually "borrows" one specific word from another language. 🤔 It's a funny thing, but there's something about the way the language is treated I guess. Sometimes it can come across as a bit disrespectful, even though I'm sure it's usually not meant like that. An example would be the way the English speaking world has "discovered" the Danish/Norwegian word hygge, and insists on using (and pronouncing) it in whatever way they want to, like it's some exotic, new commodity/product 😅 If someone tries to speak Norwegian, most Norwegians are happy to help. And if you live in Norway it is expected that you will learn our language. 🙂 But if you're gonna pick up one single word and use that in an otherwise English conversation, it's appreciated if you make the effort to get it right (considering it takes like ten seconds to look up how to say it. And as non-native English speakers we are used to looking up foreign words all the time)
