Nålbinding

A new hobby of mine, Nålbinding has become such an addiction. I think I have made 20 hats of various sizes. Most are going to be Christmas gifts to my Houston familia eventhough cold winters aren't a known there.

I made these socks yesterday, using some leftover yarn. The colors are kinda funky, but the socks are warm and comfortable. I think after last years winter, which was horrible for me, and with the high price of using heat, we pretty much lived in what I would consider subzero degrees, so being able to make my own socks will be pretty cool.

  1. I have got to get better at knitting. So far it has ended in nothing but tears and recriminations. But, oh, to have wool socks in funky colors!

  3. Archaeogoddess - I've tried knitting and crocheting to no avail. I just can't get it... but needle binding has been so much fun. If you are interested in a pair, let me know.

    Guenhwyvar - Thanks for carving me a needle out of bone. You are the bomb girl.
