ABOUT ME:
Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x

My favorite method when I can't loop start AND I've already stitched in stitches all around is just to weave in nearby stitches to start.

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Hi Candace, thank you so much for watching - that's definitely a great way to start the thread too! I've been lately trying to start my stitches from the top of my fabric so I don't have to turn the hoop but when there's an opportunity, weaving on the back is a great way of both starting and ending a thread. Thank you so much for sharing and happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@MsGabmc Год назад

Thanks for all these great tips - I usually run my thread under and 'catch' it but I might have to to try the loop method

@kalkeegan Год назад

Just tried the pin stitch for the first time and it HAS CHANGED MY WHOLE WAY OF STARTING! I think I should actually thank YT algorithm for leading me here (the only time I will thank YT) Can't wait to binge your content!

We’re so glad the video has helped you ☺️ pin stitch definitely is a game changer 👏 Hope you enjoy the rest of the tutorials & happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@rorygiambalvo2955 5 месяцев назад

I've been doing a modified loop start for single thread that ends up with double thickness for that first half stitch. I'm super happy to find another way that fixes that issue!

@marthaabstein6046 Год назад

This was wonderful. I loved that there are 4 different ways to start a thread. I am always having trouble when I have to use only one thread and you gave some great examples. Thank you.

@laviniatouchton2678 Год назад

This was so helpful! I've been cross-stitching for years, and waste knots always worked well for me. However, I've just started my first blackwork project, so I'm using a single strand all the time and many of my usual tricks don't work! I really appreciate the quality of your video and your explanations - thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for watching Lavinia, we're so happy you're finding the videos helpful! 💕 We've recently released videos on Backstitching and Stitching with one strand you might also find useful for your current project 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

What method do you suggest when starting with three threads. All I can find is for One or two.

@misseygallawan4662 Год назад

Excellent.

@melaniecall Год назад

I love the loop for two threads …. I’ll have to try it for one thread too! I use a pin stitch too … but leave the tail in the back of fabric vs clipping it from front. Great video!

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Thank you so much for watching Melanie, I'm so glad you found it helpful 😊 I try to minimise the amount of times I need to turn the hoop so I try to clip off on the top of the fabric but that's entirely a personal preference, works perfect both ways 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@EdGreenberg Год назад

Very good tutorial. One method I have used is a combination of the quilters knot and loop start. Tie a quilters knot, as small as you can, maybe just one turn around the needle, and instead of using the size of the knot to hold the thread in the hole, use the loose end of the thread with the knot as a loop. Now come up from the back and back down, then go through the two strands, just as if it was a loop. Snug it up along the back of the square, then come up from the back and either cross the stitch or start the one next to it.

@Lorielsmith Год назад

I’m fairly new to cross stitching and I love all of these ideas! I’m going to start using the loop start!

Great video. I have just started stitching with a single strand and this video was great on how to start using the loop method. Could you do a video on best practices to secure your thread for single and double strands? Thank you.

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Hi Carolyn, thank you so much for watching - glad it was helpful 😊 Thank you for the video idea, I am definitely putting it on my list. In terms of single strand stitching, I'd very much recommend to practice the pin stitch, it's the one method I use when stitching with single strand and it's super easy with a little bit of practice 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@sarahgamson8828 Год назад

How would you loop stitch with 3 threads? I'm new to cross stitch and all the kits I've currently got seem to be 3 threads x

@EnlightenedFlamingo Год назад

I have the same question...

@batmanx9996 9 месяцев назад

When I started cross stitching I just simply stitched over the start tail on the back of the piece, a couple of days ago I started to use the loop method, the only negative part is that I waste a lot of yarn

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 9 месяцев назад

Great job!

@suz1046 Год назад

Can you please do a video on how to end with the pin stitch over 1 thread?

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 9 месяцев назад

Yes will try!

@logandearborn1478 Месяц назад

Awesome video, but does using the loop start make 2 threads become equal to 4 threads because you fold the string?

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Месяц назад

Yes it does!

@l.mcmanus3983 Год назад

Hi! I only started my first ever cross stitch project a month ago and I came up with and have been using a method that you don’t mention. The project instructions say to use something like the waste away knot method but no knot, just hold the thread at the back and stitch over it. I found this really annoying to keep track of so came up with the idea of simply running my needle with a new thread under previous stitches and leaving the tail under them while coming free right where I want to continue stitching. It has been excellent and secure for large tracts of single colours but also limits where I can start. The other method you mention will be super useful for the more intricate parts. Thanks!

@l.mcmanus3983 Год назад

Oh! One more thing I find helpful! When running my needle behind stitches, I always push the the blunt end with the eye through first. This helps me not pierce either the fabric or other thread accidentally.

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Thanks for sharing, these are great tips ☺️ Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@Fritha71 5 месяцев назад

I get anxious seeing how close to the fabric people cut the tail. I never do that. When loop method is not possible I just leave a small tail at the back and stitch over it two times, sometimes even just one time in thick full coverage pieces on aida. The tail is so short that no cutting is necessary. Quick, easy and no danger of cutting into the fabric or the other threads... And I've yet to have a situation where the stitches are coming undone. But I do stitch in hand or with a small hoop so it's easy for me to work on the back.

@Gr8tBlueHeron 11 месяцев назад

I sort of do the waste away knot style, except I don't do a knot. I just flip my piece over and hold the tail with a finger while I do 3 stitches in place. As much as I love the loop method, i prefer putting the loop on my needle so I have no tail to muck about with!

@CaterpillarCrossStitch 11 месяцев назад

Fab! Thanks so much for sharing :)

@Gr8tBlueHeron 11 месяцев назад

@@CaterpillarCrossStitch since watching this though, I've started now with the downward parking (I just don't bother with the knot) and it makes life SO much easier than holding the tail!

@phyllisreeves1156 Год назад

How do you do a confetti stitch with valdani pearl cotton? Thanks

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Hi Phyllis, thank you for watching 😊 I don't really have experience with valdani pearl cotton, I suppose that is stitching with one strand only as it looks thicker that one strand DMC, more like Sulky? Is it a completely stand alone stitch or just a single stitch of one colour with stitches of other colours around? If completely stand alone, I would consider using the loop method for one strand to start the stitch (as shown in the video) and then pin stitch to end the thread. If surrounded by stitches of other colours it gets much easier, there's plenty of options. You could start with pin stitch or single strand loop start, and end the thread by weaving it behind surrounding stitches. We will release ways to end thread next week. Hope this helps! 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

How would you start a single-thread backstich?

@haileybaker1383 Год назад

The loop method is awesome but I don't know what to do w the tread tails I put through the needle so I don't lose them 😭 should I just knot them so they don't come out of the needle eye??

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Thank you so much for watching Hailey! I usually hold the eye of the needle when I pull it to secure the thread in it and stop if from unthreading. You can also try to leave a longer tail or experiment with needles - some have much larger eyes than others. I personally swear by 26 tapestry needle by Bohin. You can knot the thread at the eye and there's nothing wrong with that if nothing else works. However it might be a bit bulky to go through the fabric and as a result the thread and/or the fabric might get a bit damaged. See what works best for your though and then just stick with it, there's no right or wrong way in cross stitch 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

@dianelewin3435 Год назад

Can I use 2 strands of thread with the Loop method. I know how to use one strand folded in half to make the loop but I'd like to use 2 strands so I don't have to start and stop so often. I am a new cross stitcher.

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Hi Diane, thanks so much for watching! 😊 I would recommend to cut your thread much longer if possible - mine are cut to 1m length so I get 50cm thread after folding it for a loop start. If that's not an option, I would recommend trying out the pin stitch, or you can do a bit of a cheeky loop start method by making a knot at the end of your short lengths but still using it as a loop. It's not ideal and many people would disagree with this but if nothing else works for you then I'd just go with it 😊 Happy stitching 🌸 Marie

What’s the best way to start when doing a backstitch? All of these are super helpful, but they only show how to use when actually doing the cross. Am I making sense?

@CaterpillarCrossStitch Год назад

Thank you for your question and for watching! When doing backstitch over existing full stitches, I'd recommend starting your thread by running it behind a couple of stitches on the back of the fabric. If you're doing blackwork type of backstitch (i.e. there are no full stitches beneath our backstitch thread, only fabric), I found a great method you can use - pull your thread through the fabric only half way and stitch until you're at the end. Then thread the other end of the thread and finish stitching with the other half of the thread. That way the thread technically has no beginning, only two ends. Hope that makes sense! Happy stitching 🌸 Marie
