For those confused:
1) Ignore the thread length that’s twisted. It looks like something happened that we missed but it’s irrelevant. It’s just her thread doing that on its own and it doesn’t do anything.
2) when she says “reverse” the needle, she means move the needle with the eye facing the tail-end pinched between fore and thumb.
3) take the tail-end side of the thread and wind that around the needle 3 times. The “tail-end” refers to the end of the thread opposite of the needle.
4) With the spiral‘s windings pinched between fore and thumb, pull the needle point-ward away from the fore-thumb thread. This tightens the thread, securing the knot.
Hope this helps !!
Idont know why others is 🤷♀️ confused
Ok now I think it’s me that’s stupid coz I’m still confused
Not everyone thinks and learns the same. What is blatantly obvious to one person can be totally confusing to another simply on the way it is presented because of the way their mind works. In one of his interviews, Richard Feynman gave a brilliant example of how people think in different ways. He and another scientist each knew they could do something that the other could not comprehend could possibly be done. Each had a brilliant mind, but because of the way each of their minds worked, they could not could not do what the other found simple. This is why we fail so many of our young people. We have a school system that believes because it was easy for them to learn this way, then that way must be the right and ONLY way to learn. So if this video was confusing to you, take comfort in the reason why and that you are not alone. Seek out other examples and maybe one of them will click for you.
Was
Thats what i did. Doesnt work
I'm so happy I'm not the only one thats confused
I agree!
I too agree
JOJOS BIZARRE ADVENTURE
i did it in first try can't believe it , what am i itachi
Oi josuke!
thank you... its so much easier to strip down a car engine than to sew
Mowing grass is easier.
Do you think you could help me with both? My childhood did not prepare me for either.
@@steelhere5519 I resorted to zip ties for my repair.
😅😅
I got lost around the 1:50 mark and now the needle is stuck in my eye. What do I do from there?
Master Debater lmao 🤣🤣🤣
Yup. sounds about right
Oof. that's gonna be a pain to get out lol
Really? Slow down or speed up playback speed. This wasn't confusing for me. But there is a YTV that shows us how to tie shoes in seconds that I've been watching very slowly. 😅
@i blocked ads to watch this video Thats all these Reddit queens ever do, regurgitate the same tired joke as the other 10,000 cookie-cutter Redditors, each one more desperate for peer approval than the last. It is utterly pathetic. That site has been a cancer of the internet since it first started, as, poetically enough, a cookie-cutter copy of digg.
"Hold the needle."
Me: Got it
"Now just take the end loop and reverse the needle top side until the back eye is against your thumb and forefinger and rotate anticlockwise until your left hand is perpendicular to the underside of the short threat and DONE!

It worked, and I'm stunned/delighted! It looked like a bit of magic. When my knot appeared at the end after pulling, I couldn't believe it. So much easier than the kindergarten-style knot making I was previously doing. Thank you!
i love this woman! I need to sew something maybe once every two years and by then have forgotten how to get started. I have saved this and pull it up whenever I tackle sewing again. And her accent is adorable.
6 years later, and you are still helping dumb guys like me learn how to stitch our own clothing. Thanks for basics videos like this. You rock, SMS. :-D
I watched a couple other videos on the tailor's knot, but this is by far the most visibly filmed one I've found, so thank you for putting in the extra effort to light it well and zoom in!
I'm 64 & my eyes aren't what they used to be! Came on here to find a way to thread a needle without my glasses & watched this video too. I love your videos!! I've been sewing since 7th grade & haven't seen these techniques. I'm thrilled. Lol I love sewing. Thank you!
I’m 38 years old and by watching your video I just now figured out how to tie a decent knot at the end of my thread. Thank you so much!!!
man i was extremely frustrated in constantly failing in making knots, then i came across your vid, still got pissed i couldn't do it right, but I did not give up. I FINALLY got it. I'm so bad with tiny stuff like this. Little by litte I am getting the hang of it now, thanks to your vids. I must've replayed your video like 20 times lol.
I have tried 2 other tutorials and they didn’t work, but I’m so glad I found this video because I finally was able to tie the knot at the end of my thread. Thank You!
Thank you so much ! I'm fitting a car steering wheel cover and couldn't understand how to do this knot until I saw your video x
While I’m not a beginner-beginner, this was so helpful! Thank you!!! I was just going back to do some minor repairs on a favorite shirt and this was wonderful, thank you!!! 🥰🥰🥰
I’ve been sewing since I was a little girl, but I have never seen this before. Thank you for changing my life at the ripe wonderful age of 50!😂❤🎉
My flex is I got this first try. Thank you!!!
I just tried this trick and now you have made my life x1000 easier
Omg! I am just searching how to thread and knot for sewing and I found out this! Thanks for the help girl!
This is actually so much better than the in-person sewing class I took at school i did not know what I was doing then but this is so well explained!
Thanks for the tip. Never too old to learn. Took a couple of goes but got it ok. Also used your threading the needle tip. Thanks from an old geezer.
You are an amazing teacher. Going to try and hand sew a hem for the first time today. Thank you.
Huh! All this time trying to get my knots to line up i could have been doing this! Brilliant! 😊
Very happy with your help thank you I’m actually have some furniture and I’ve had a brain injuries left me paralysed and I was working out I could do with one hand and then you just show me thank you so much
My Tóibín come out correctly I’m actually a soft furn furniturer
I had forgotten how to tie a knot for the needle;;; But when I finished watching your video I remembered the original way i had learned it and i prefer your method~
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
That was actually really easy to understand. Makes sense to me! I’m going to try it
OK, Thank you for the loose end of the thread, but how do you keep the other end of the thread in the eye of the needle without it coming out?
This
omg what is this gypsy magic. you've changed my life!
For so many years I have struggled with making a sewing knot, I just watched your video, tried it and it worked the first time. Not sure why others were having a problem, your instructions were very clear and well done. I love this knot, so simple and it gives you a good little fat knot so as not to pull through the fabric! Thank you for ending my sewing knot struggle!
Same i can’t believe someone is confused with just this
Because not everyone is you, and grasps things differently? It’s confusing to me, and I always just do a simple knot.
The only different method, and it's simply brilliant! FINALLY! One that works every single time, the first time!!!
Thanks ever so!!!
Great video to reference when I forget again, thanks for the help!
This was super helpful!! I accidentally ripped the band on my covid mask and this helped me fix it!
Thank you. This technique worked on the second try.
I saw a few videos on how to do this and this one was the most clear! Finally got it. Thank you!
I don't know how this witchcraft just worked but it did. well played
Just the video I was looking for.
Oh my goodness, I’ve been tying the first type all my life and getting frustrated when it pulls through when (attempting) to hand sew. I’m terrible at hand seeing so hoping you have more videos on the subject. So glad this caught my eye!!! Thank you.
Same here! I end up tying a double or triple knot, but it's so hard to do because you can't get the first knot to meet up with the 2nd most of the time. It's hard to explain, but I'm glad I found this video. Hopefully it won't be so difficult to get a big enough knot now.
Thank you! This is a mystery solved! Even watching your video, I was at first thinking, “what sorcery is this?” But both the first video on threading the needle and this one on tying the knot brought me success on the first try! I’ve always been hopeless with string and rope. But this worked. Thanks again.
What an awesome method. A nice neat knot every time. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this little gem!
It took me a few try’s but I got it. Very good demonstration, thank you.
I’m blind in my right eye so doing this is hard work, but your video was so helpful. Thank you so much!😅
I didn’t understand at first but when it was repeated at the end i think I got it. Thanks!
Tried it..didn't work
Tried again..didn't work
Tried again..no
Tried again..I give up
ME TOOOOOOOOO
Great video thanks ❤
Ugh I am a mommy of 2 and no one has ever taught me to sew. I thought I did the knot wrong and when I wanted to try all over again, I realized I did the knot. It was exciting!
Your voice is so satisfying i love listening to your voice.
Holy cow. I got it! Thank you for this video!
Nobody ever properly taught me how to do this before. This is so easy
thank you so much i finally learned how to tie a knot , i m little embarrassed but it was so easy to do i didn't know that, finally i m ready.
So neat!! I was so proud of myself when I got it
ill just stick with duck taping my ends
Rave
Lmao
It works! Great piece of advice.
Absolute life saver! I've always hated trying to knot thread, and this is so easy!
that was confusing????????
I finally figured it out! Once you get the hang of it it’s pretty easy! Thanks for the tutorial :)
Literally sitting here with a shirt and a button...this is a lifesaver
I went through a rollercoaster of emotions. Broke into a sweat. But I did it 🙌
OMG! I can't believe it worked, i tried so many times but its getting easier and easier 😀
Thank you a lot!
that was actually probably the most helpful youtube video ever thank you
Thanks! Not the original video I was looking for but exactly the reminder I was. Love this trick!
This was extremely well explained and easy to follow. Thank you!
Extremely helpful thank you!
Oh wow, first try! Thank you so much ❤
This was helpful. Thanks, I’m trying to get into sewing and this was the best how to vid I found (and I when thru allot of non descriptive vids) 💙
This was so helpful! I remember learning about this in my home and careers class!
Very confusing not really sure what you were talking about
I love this
I got it the first time
Lowkey thought I messed up but I managed first try
Oh it’s like magic!!!✨✨✨ Thank you!
just want to say thank you so much!!! this is sooo easy and very helpful!!
I can’t believe that actually worked first try!
Ok but what did we do to the other end....a string has 2 ends and u showed us how to knot one end....where is the other end of the string....isnit loose
Fabulous! Thanks for the little instructional. Greetings from Winnipeg, Canada
Yay, worked first time 👏👏. Thanks.
WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER END?
IS IT JUST LOOSE?!
Cut it off
Wtf I’ve never seen a more complicated explanation of a knot.
Then how did I do it 🤔
It was very confusing, I kept making knots with only one strand, how do you get the other tail incorporated so it's a knot holding both ends for sewing?
@@lisam8044 idk
2:00 is the easiest one! Thank you!!!
So excited to find your videos and finally learned easier ways to thread a needle and to tie the knot. Thanks so much. 🤗 Can’t wait to watch more of your videos!
Thank u so much I'm surprised how easy it actually turned out to be
that was really easy and so helpful thank you
i dont find it very confusing
I’m not sure why anyone would be confused. These are clear and concise instructions
Got it first try, very neat!
So easy! Thank you!
Informative much appreciated 👍🏽 👌🏽 🙏🏾
Love this!! Saves me so much time!
Seems simple to me, thank you
Beautiful video thank you.
Literally cant see anything
You helped me follow along and In the end I ended up improvising and finding my own way! Thank you so much for this content🪡🪡🪡✨✨✨
Thank you. That's was awesome trick to learn. I did it the first try. Yeah!!!
Fantastic tutorial. I have been trying to do this for months 😊
THIS WAS SO EASY TO DO OMG thanks!!
Very cool. I assume if I want a bigger knit just wrap it around the needle more times?
Thank you so much for this.I absolutely love it. I am a beginner and this was very helpful.
Holy moly! It worked!
That's crazy simple, thanks! Sewing was easier to learn than I had expected but that starting knot was always a struggle for me.
This is so much easier than the way I used to tie it! TY so much!
I will definitely try this technique!
Very clever! Thanks!
great so what is this knot for exactly? what do i do with it?
OMG! I’m a 70-year-old man who has been doing sewing repairs since my mother taught me at the age of 12. Why didn’t she teach me this? I love you! 2:33
