Needle-binding

Testing a blogpost from my iPhone ... Need to learn...;0)
So if it looks strange... It's only me ... Trying to figure this out!!!:0)

Making my school work at Mum and Dads place... having some days off around EASTER...

Needle-binding, single needle knitting, knotless knitting is some of the translations I get of this technique... Nålbindning!!




Enjoying my days with family and sunshine!!!
