Thank you! Great tips I did not know! I've been needlepointing for a while, but I think I was doing it wrong when I started the second row. I learned from you, thanks!
Thank you so much! I just received a beginners kit and it didn't do a good job of explaining. Your video was very helpful. Now I'm off to do my first needle point thanks to you!
Hello I'm from Australia I bought a kit today I didn't remember how to do this so come on here... I watched a few before I found yours... So Ty I just started mine u explained it so good . TFS I just subscribed to your channel.. omg I just realised mine is all purple with a unicorn 🦄 similar to yours
Thank you! Without knowing how to do it myself, I'm trying to help my 6-year-old learn to needlepoint with a kit. I could not for my life figure out how to start the second row, even with the kit's instructions and diagram! There's just no substitute for demonstration.
Thank you. I like the knot idea easier to tie in on the underside. Easy to understand. I'm ready to start. Please post more on changing colours within the pattern, I have trouble understanding if I should stitch in a particular spot where there isn't much of the picture. Sorry to sound unclear, I'm struggling for words to describe.
Hi Simon, did you find that you have to flip the canvas over with each new row? Can needlepoint be done without flipping the canvas? I'm new as well--I can embroider but needlepoint is a little confusing to me.
My kits say to undo the threads 6 strings each) before I start knitting. I didn’t do that on my first kit, because I didn’t see a difference. What say you?
Why do I have to turn the canvas upside down for the second row--is this necessary? It's a very confusing step. Can I just work on one side without flipping the canvas over with each row? Thanks!
what kind of a needle are you using? i have just started to latch hook and i like it,this looks interesting as well,there are lots of canvas needlepoint kits on ebay for sale
Never heard of leaving a knot in front of the canvas like that. I prefer to have the tail in the back and stitch over it to hold it. I also think your length of yarn is much too long. When it's that long it tends to get "woolly" because it's going in and out so often.
You should be able to buy canvas at any needlework or craft store. I don't like the stiff plastic type of canvas. I like the canvas that is beige in color and softer.
Continental stitch distorts the canvas. Basket weave or tent stitch are better stitches to use. If your canvas is distorted it is difficult to get straight again for finishing. Video not helpful.
This was the best beginner video- you answered all the questions a beginner would have! Now I am ready to start needlepoint! Thank you!
Thank you so much!! 10 years later and this video was immensely helpful for this beginner 💜💜
Thank you. This explained managing the smaller bits at the beginning very well.

Thank you so much for those helpful instructions! The accent was an added bonus.
Thank you so much, it's been years since I last needle pointed and I truly forgot how to begin.
That "waste knot" is a brilliant idea!!!
Thank you. My daughter and I are beginners so we found your video very helpful.

@@473mishke Hi Mishka. I must admit I don't flip the canvas over - I just go in a backwards direction on the same side.
Thanks for the help! There were some really nice starter tips here.

How many strands do I have to use if I use DMC 25 phreads?
Loving Hobby i think it’s 12!
does all needlpoint projects use yarn?
what kind of a needle are you using? i have just started to latch hook and i like it,this looks interesting as well,there are lots of canvas needlepoint kits on ebay for sale
so is needlepoint generally easier than cross stitching? Thinking of picking up a kit to try it out and I was curious.
So needlepoint is basically the same as plastic canvas right??
THANK YOU!!! That helped so much!!

Sara W what's the best canvas to use to make your own design and where can I buy it
