VPC2017: Lord Nathanael and Lady Melissa's Naalbound Jumper

This is another joint entry from Lady Melissa and Lord Nathanael. It is intended for the categories Back To Basics, Counting On Sheep, String Theory and Cover Me!

Lady Melissa writes:

It is a woolen naalbound jumper, constructed using the Oslo stitch. The yarn was spun by Melissa, who also washed and carded the fleeces--both colours are the natural colour of the sheep. Nathanael did the naalbinding. We had to work to keep up with each other, a speed project that took about a month! Because it was worked with doubled yarn, it is very warm!
