Wool cap and fingerless gloves.

[Grimble Grumble]

I made these gloves and cap out of 100% virgin wool yarn using a viking age process called Nalebinding.
These are actually my first items made using the technique. It wasn't really difficult. I just used several youtube videos for instruction.
I found a guy named MVsBushcraft to have the best basic walkthrough of the process. I made the cap very much like his.
I followed only intuition with the gloves, no pattern. I used a fairly large antler needle that I had made a few years ago.

Now that is impressive! My wife does nalebinding so I know how time consuming and intricate it can be. Well done, Ranger!

The green gloves look awesome. Are they comfortable?

[Grimble Grumble]

Yes. They are made from a very soft wool.

They are actually a dark grey. The pictures are of the same gloves. The sunlight just changed the color in the picture.
