The Ancient Craft of Nalbinding

This ancient yarn technique was used by people across the world, from Egypt and Peru, to the Vikings in Scandinavia. It predates knitting and crochet, and has recently been considered an endangered heritage craft.

This class covers a short introduction of the craft and its history. Students will learn a basic nalbinding stitch and all the necessary skills to make a basic item such as a small pouch or hat.

This is a beginner level class. Knitting and/or crochet skills are not necessary, but can be helpful.

A $10 materials fee will be paid to the instructor at class to cover a needle and wool yarn.


Class held in conjunction with St. Cloud Spin Fest & Fiber Fair
