sarra commented on the word nøstepinne
Norwegian (Bokmål; the Nyorsk is nystepinne) for “little nest-stick” — a simple tool of turned wood used to wind balls of wool by hand.
Also known as a nøstepinde, as in these instructions for using one, but this may well be an error as Norwegian has no pinde.
