Starting and Finishing your Cross Stitch

Finally I get the loop stitch! You’re the first person who has explained that you start with one strand and thread both ends through needle to make a loop! I’m a very visual learner, so your video was perfect!
Also the diagram of the cross stitch, and where you put your needle for the pin stitch. Brilliant, Thanks so much!

THANK YOU

That was very straightforward and helpful, thank you 😊

Thank you I will use the first method

Thank you so much ❤

As a newbie to cross-stitch, this was really helpful! I've only been using the catch-the-tail method to start and the weaving method to end a section, but these aren't always the best methods to use in some cases. I'll give these other methods a try!

Super helpful for me. Thank you! I’m

Thank you for showing me how to cross stitch I am a beginner

I have two (2) counted cross stitch kits and do I count the squares and where do I begin?

23rd

Thank you 😊

Hi, video good but to me that’s too much thread pulled through then cutting. But that’s just me.😊

Im noting your aida is soft so Im assuming that you've washed it, as its usually too stiff for in hand sewing.

Very good thank you!!!

Отгоре,отдолу,отгоре,отдолу......много бавно става всичко......така ще шия един гоблен две години..... нямам време за губене.....

I am just learning counted cross stitching. I just finished my first, literally a "My First Cross Stitch" pattern by Buscilla and I wish I'd know how to pin stitch! It was a mermaid and had a couple of one cross stich accents around the mermaid that I was wondering how to start and stop. Of course I just stretched over there and back from the nearest grouping, and you can definitely see a bit of the thread color coming through on the front. Glad to know there is a better option when I move on to more important works!

Thank you for this, very useful.

Wonderful! Thank you!

Great instructions. Thank you.

I’m understanding the stitching. I’m stuck because in all the videos I watch they start in the center. The cross stitch kit I have doesn’t start in the middle. How do you know where to start?

Just fabulous! Thanks so much, cheers 😊❤️💕🥰😘

Amazing. Now i can keep back of my cross stitch neat

Pin stitch is going to change my life!! I have such a hard time with trailing tails because the patterns I love the most have a lot of single stitches in one color

Thank you for putting that little diagram of the pin stitch! I kept watching videos of people doing it, but it just looked like they were moving the needle up and down in the same place over and over. This was very helpful!

thanks :-)

This video is a favorite of mine. I've learned a lot from your descriptions. I specifically came here to find out how to do one single stitch starting and ending with a pin stitch. I wasn't sure how to exactly do the second pin stitch but thanks to you, I've got it. Thank you!

the isolated pin stitch blew my mind. it's gonna be so helpful. thanks!

Thank you! You demonstrated how to use the pin stitch with an isolated stitch, which is something I’ve wanted to know.

This was very informative! Thank you for your help ☺

Very good demo. Thanks. Loved the pin sitch tutorial.

Thanks. Very helpful for me.

An excellent video. Thank you.

Watching this video in 2020, great tips. Thanks.

thank you, this was really helpful!!

Really helpful, thank you !

Awesome!!! Exactly what I was looking for. 👍🏻

Yes I like to cross stitch.
Should your pattern be stitch one row at a time from lest to right or can you sitch a group of same color? Let's say 3 rows, red, 5 stitches on top, 10 stitches in middle and 7 stitches on third row before moving on to next group of color.

Lovely video. Really well made. Thanks!

I've been doing it wrong then. Haha. Thank you. It's my first cross stitch project due to this quarantine. I've had little bumps because I've been tying it behind. Oh well. I'm just going to do more projects with this one and I'm not done yet. I can always do this now.

Great video. Thanks for posting. I am just learning and have a question. I left some tails on the back that aren't secured (my first project), how can I fix this after completion?

Thank you for that. I am flosstube too. Nice too meet you.

Can I watch cross stitch without explanation. Irritating

This was so extremely helpful! Very well done - thank you!

Why not start loop method at back, thru to front, cross, and then put needle thru loop at back? No need to pull any knot thru.

Very clear instruction. Thank you.

This was very helpful!! But I would love some of the stitches to be slowed down.. I can't understand pin stitch, its too quick to see :(
