It differs from modern knitting needles in that it has a hole for threading the yarn. Unlike modern sewing needles, it is also significantly wider in diameter, and the tip of the nålebinding needle is blunt to prevent accidental piercing of the yarn.\u003cbr\u003e The knitting needle used for nålebinding is ideal for creating your own historical garments such as hats and gloves. The oldest nålebinding finds date back to the Stone Age. Nålebinding is therefore significantly older than knitting or crocheting and can thus be considered a precursor to modern craft techniques. Finds related to nålebinding extend into the Early Middle Ages, meaning that textiles from antiquity and the Viking Age, for example, can also be reconstructed. \u003cbr\u003eIn nålbinding, unlike knitting, only one needle is used. The advantage of this technique is that runs cannot occur, as the individual stitches are knotted during the process. Furthermore, the yarn is cut for each row of stitches, making this needlework method ideal for using up leftover yarn. The resulting fabric is also beautifully firm and dense.\u003cbr\u003e This bone needle can also be used as a large sewing needle, but only for knitted handicrafts with wide stitches or elastic threads, as otherwise it will not penetrate the material due to the blunt tip and will leave holes in the fabric due to the width of the large sewing needle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Suitable for many eras: Stone Age, Antiquity, Early Middle Ages\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Dimensions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Length: approx. 8.5 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Diameter: approx. 5.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Hole diameter: 2.5 x 6 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e Weight: approx. 5 g.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color:#ff0000;\"\u003ePrice per sewing needle!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Battle-Merchant Wacken GmbH \u0026 Co.
