You may have seen the beautiful hats and gloves that Judith Fischer donated at the library. Many people were intrigued by the unusual nålebinding technique.
Nålebinding is a fabric creation technique predating both crochet and knitting. The technique is distinct from crochet and knitting in that it involves passing the full length of the working thread through each loop. Non-washable wool must be used for this technique because each length of the working yarn has to be joined to the next, new length by felting them to each other, so neither washable wool nor acrylic works.
Judith Fischer will teach how to make a hat by using this technique. Needles and yarn will be supplied. However if you have a flat rug lacing needle with a large eye, please bring it as it might be easier to use. Also bring a size 2 knitting needle if you have one.
Registration is required so we have enough materials. Limited to 10 participants.
