Martha:

Thanks for the note! I'm familiar with Odd Nordland,
and have come across the following:

1961 Primitive Scandinavian Textiles in Knotless
Netting. Studia Norvegica No. 10. Oslo University
Press, Oslo.

I also was referred to the NESAT reference below. Are
you thinking of one of these?

Hansen, E. H.
1990 Nalebinding: Definition and Description. In
Textiles in Northern Archaeology: NESAT III Textile
Symposium, York 6-9 May 1987, edited by P. Walton and
J. P. Wild, pp. 21-27. Archetype Publications, London.


Thanks for your help, Ed
