[Microblog] Mhhhhm

submitted by
A project in nalbind, with two rows of made. The first row was in blue, with the knots not at all tight enough. The second row is in purple, and here the knots are tight.

Mhhhhm... Something seems wrong with my nålebind project.. 🤔

Must be the colours, i'm sure ! Not at all because I didn't tie the knots tight enough on the first row 😌

Fortunately, the project is to make a headband, so it's not too much of a problem (if it had been socks or something else, a bit more complicated...)

It's always that first row that gets me too... 😅 This is awesome though, love to see nalbinding content on the fedi!

Personally, what I've been doing instead is using a thin knitting needle as sort of a stand-in for my thumb, like this. That gets all the stitches nice and tight! Probably kind of a cop-out to just learning the "proper" way to get good tension, but it works.

Exactly ! For me personally it's always the Oslo stitch that's giving me some difficulties lol more complex ones ? Easy peasy but the Oslo stitch ? 🫥🫥

I will be using that solution for it so thank you for the information 😁 I think I have a needle or crochet somewhere lol
