I have some new wooden nalbinding needles available in my Etsy shop. They are hand made by a Missouri craftsmen who does amazing work, and the needles have an amazing look and feel to them. To see the colors and sizes that I currently have available, please see my Etsy listing here. They are perfect for beginners and experienced people alike.
These needles would also be great for reenactments. Amazingly it is believed that nalbinding predates knitting by about a thousand years! And with Nalbinding being such a rare craft it would be perfect for a reenactment demonstration.
Nalbinding also makes a great craft for taking on a trip since you don't have to worry about losing your place. And because of the way the fabric is made is does not unravel if dropped. Making it a great project to take with you on the go.
I recently listed some new hand crafted wooden crochet hooks in my Etsy shop. I am currently offering them with free shipping, and there is a very limited supply. Once these sell out, it may be a long time before I can get more back in stock.
These handmade crochet hooks have been beautifully hand crafted by a Missouri artisan. And are available in your choice of either; cherry, walnut, or maple wood. Each one is unique in appearance. Making them each one of a kind. A light finish has been applied to bring out the lovely natural color of the wood. And they have all have an amazing look and feel to them.
