This is a fantastic video, you explain everything so well. The last example of the dmc thread reminds me of when you use two colours, one strand of each. If you had the right colour it would look amazing on the roof of a house. Like a house that is under a tree and the sunlight is shining through the trees and creating that random light and dark. I hope I am making sense, sorry if I'm not
Thank you so much! I’m glad it’s helpful. You make perfect sense - I know exactly what you’re talking about. Blended threads are awesome for creating various looks. It just goes to show how creative we can be with the simple use of a few colors. Thank you for watching! ☺️
Pull a length about the length of your arm (or to your elbow) fold in half. Put the "cut" ends of your folded through the eye of your needle. Bring your threaded needle up through your fabric; dive down and go through the loop on the back of the fabric and tighten, gently. Also, you could try the front maneuver where you go down, first and have the loop on the top of the fabric and pull it through via the other corner. I have a hard time explaining that one.
If you go to the 10:30 mark or so it shows how to make the loop, and then at about the 16:00 mark I show how to start it with a stitch. This is from my series on teaching how to cross stitch. Hope this helps! th-cam.com/video/Mx0Rnbw2Eqg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gh7E0TB15ZHtjKjt

I wish you would have shown how you did the loop start with one thread😊
