FRENCH KNOTS

Go dotty with this simple way to add neat knots to your designs

Step 1

BRING your needle up at your starting point and wrap your thread once or twice around the needle. Use one strand for a small knot and two for a chunkier knot. Hold your thread end firmly and take your needle down, ever so slightly away from where you came up. Slide the twisted thread down the needle, so it rests on the fabric’s surface, and gently feed the needle through the fabric.
