Oh, good site, thanks for sharing - I appreciate the spindle info, too! Andrea Just found this recently: http://www.hucca.org/kirjoituksia/woolmittens.htm J....

More than likely the writer of that site hasn't run across that information yet, as it is relatively new info. Or the site was written pre redating. --Kiara ...

Greetings, I believe that is the case. It says AS XXXV meaning it was written sometime between May of 2000 and April of 2001. That is well prior to the carbon ...

Hi, everybody! I've become interested in learning to naalbind because I *need* a pair of socks for an outfit I'm making. I've dug around in the archives and...

I've put a little info on my website: http://www.gts-ltd.co.uk/shelagh/Nalbinding/Nalbinding.htm shows a sock made using Coppergate stitch, and Shetland...
... sock made using Coppergate stitch, and Shetland fingering wool. That's a great looking sock, but I don't see any resemblance at all to the original -- none...
As I understand it, the coppergate sock was made with a technique that requires you to take the loop off your thumb and tighten it, gauge by eye as the size...
Hiya! You're right about the lack of a slit at the top - I hadn't studied the original when I made it - must try again. Indeed, I haven't actually studied it...
I don't use my thumb for Coppergate stitch, because there is no complicated looping involved - you can just sew each stitch as though you were doing blanket...
Well, yeah, it will be for a competition--as part of a 10th c. Dublin outfit. I'll fiddle with bits and such to get myself acquainted with the technique, and...

Can you explain the difference between a shoe lining and a sock to me? Does this mean that it was made in the shape of the shoe rather than the foot? Was too...
My understanding is that a shoe liner stops at the ankle, where the shoe stops rather than coming over the ankle, as a sock would. Other people may have...
... No I can't. But I can tell you that the word 'sock' has not always meant what it means to us now. In older documents a 'sock' is a garment that covers the...
