Nålbinding Tutorial - Chain of Oslo Stitch | the artful acorn

Learn to work a chain of nålbinding (NOHL-bin-ding) in the Oslo stitch, using a blunt yarn needle (nål), some bulky wool yarn (such as Paton's Classic Roving, or Alafoss Lopi), and your thumb!

Nålbinding, or “needle binding,” is a traditional Scandinavian single-needle technique for making textiles that pre-dates knitting and crochet by thousands of years, and has been practised in several other cultures around the world. Of the many possible nålbinding stitches, the Oslo stitch is a popular one, and is great for beginners.
