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.
😅😅
"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 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.
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’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!!!
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 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.
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!
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
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!
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!
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!😂❤🎉
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.
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
Omg! I am just searching how to thread and knot for sewing and I found out this! Thanks for the help girl!
The only different method, and it's simply brilliant! FINALLY! One that works every single time, the first time!!!
Thanks ever so!!!
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!!! 🥰🥰🥰
My flex is I got this first try. Thank you!!!
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.
This was super helpful!! I accidentally ripped the band on my covid mask and this helped me fix it!
You are an amazing teacher. Going to try and hand sew a hem for the first time today. Thank you.
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.
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!
What an awesome method. A nice neat knot every time. Thanks so much for taking the time to share this little gem!
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.
I just tried this trick and now you have made my life x1000 easier
omg what is this gypsy magic. you've changed my life!
I don't know how this witchcraft just worked but it did. well played
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 saw a few videos on how to do this and this one was the most clear! Finally got it. Thank you!
Your voice is so satisfying i love listening to your voice.
Huh! All this time trying to get my knots to line up i could have been doing this! Brilliant! 😊
That was actually really easy to understand. Makes sense to me! I’m going to try it
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.
Absolute life saver! I've always hated trying to knot thread, and this is so easy!
WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER END?
IS IT JUST LOOSE?!
Cut it off
It took me a few try’s but I got it. Very good demonstration, thank you.
Tried it..didn't work
Tried again..didn't work
Tried again..no
Tried again..I give up
ME TOOOOOOOOO
Nobody ever properly taught me how to do this before. This is so easy
that was confusing????????
This was extremely well explained and easy to follow. Thank you!
Literally sitting here with a shirt and a button...this is a lifesaver
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!
I didn’t understand at first but when it was repeated at the end i think I got it. Thanks!
I finally figured it out! Once you get the hang of it it’s pretty easy! Thanks for the tutorial :)
Very cool. I assume if I want a bigger knit just wrap it around the needle more times?
I’m blind in my right eye so doing this is hard work, but your video was so helpful. Thank you so much!😅
Great video to reference when I forget again, thanks for the help!
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.
I went through a rollercoaster of emotions. Broke into a sweat. But I did it 🙌
Just the video I was looking for.
Holy cow. I got it! Thank you for this video!
that was actually probably the most helpful youtube video ever thank you
OMG! I can't believe it worked, i tried so many times but its getting easier and easier 😀
Thank you a lot!
Thank you. This technique worked on the second try.
Oh wow, first try! Thank you so much ❤
So neat!! I was so proud of myself when I got it
just want to say thank you so much!!! this is sooo easy and very helpful!!
Fabulous! Thanks for the little instructional. Greetings from Winnipeg, Canada
ill just stick with duck taping my ends
Rave
Lmao
Yay, worked first time 👏👏. Thanks.
Thanks! Not the original video I was looking for but exactly the reminder I was. Love this trick!
This was so helpful! I remember learning about this in my home and careers class!
That's crazy simple, thanks! Sewing was easier to learn than I had expected but that starting knot was always a struggle for me.
Oh it’s like magic!!!✨✨✨ Thank you!
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) 💙
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!
I can’t believe that actually worked first try!
It works! Great piece of advice.
Literally cant see anything
Great video thanks ❤
2:00 is the easiest one! Thank you!!!
Very confusing not really sure what you were talking about
Thanks for the helpful video. I have a vest with an inner liner. Would a curved needle be the best choice to sew a patch on it without going through the liner?
Fantastic tutorial. I have been trying to do this for months 😊
Thank u so much I'm surprised how easy it actually turned out to be
BRUH I FOUND OUT HOW TO DO ITT! for people how are still confused even with the other comments help!
1. the “tail” end means the side where the thead isn’t connected from the start
2. The “top” part is the other end
how to actually do the knot:
1. Cut out a piece of the thread
2. Put needle through thread/ hold how she is: 1:52
3: REVERSE THE THREAD means that you hold your hand that is holding the needle in place and the needle itself moves to the side and back without moving its place so you make a loop
4: hold that loop/the needle with the hand thats still holding the thread in place from earlier
5: like as she says take the “tail” part and rap that around the needle 2-3 times and pull it down so your now also holding that now and then take the needle and pull up and it should make a knot!
I KNOW OT STILL MIGHT NOW WORK FOR SOME JUST KEEP PRACTICING OR ASK FOR HELP/JUST DO A BASIC OVERHAND KNOT!
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
that was really easy and so helpful thank you
i dont find it very confusing
Your tutorials were very easy to follow!
thank you very much :)
This is so much easier than the way I used to tie it! TY so much!
Informative much appreciated 👍🏽 👌🏽 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for this.I absolutely love it. I am a beginner and this was very helpful.
Extremely helpful thank you!
Yay! Easy, clear, much better than my method. Which is no method. Lol.
I love this
I got it the first time
Lowkey thought I messed up but I managed first try
AWESOME LOL! My friends will think I am a pro!
Holy moly! It worked!
Can you also tell me how to make a knot over the same knot I already made, so that the knot is bigger for thick fabric?
the neck of one of my t-shirts is ripped in two places. How do I hand sew that back together?
Love this!! Saves me so much time!
Got it first try, very neat!
I’ve tried this 5 times and i cant get it. I have problems figuring out wich end to wrap 3 times. Im holding two ends, but now when i reverse it im holding one end and a loop. I tried doing it multiple ways and i just cant get it. Also, am i trying to make a knot with both ends together, just one or a knot on each? Im really confused. You say “grab the end NOT connected to the needle. THEYRE ALL CONNECTED TO THE NEEDLE…lol.
Thank you. That's was awesome trick to learn. I did it the first try. Yeah!!!
THIS WAS SO EASY TO DO OMG thanks!!
I do something similar (called the Quilter's Knot I think) but using different hand positions which seems to make it much more foolproof to me.
I just keep the needle in my left hand turning the point to face my right then take the end of the thread and lay it alongside the shaft the of the needle (pointing towards the eye). I hold the tip of the thread with my left thumb and wind it around the needle shaft with my right (it doesn't get caught or tangled with the start of the thread this way), edge my left thumb down to grip the spiral and simply use my right hand to pull the needle outwards so the spiral slides along the thread and knots near the end.
Thank you to OP. My mom taught me how to do this but I couldn’t remember. Also, thx to Jacky F (commenter) for sharing the same explanation but worded differently. I followed the instructions from OP but the not would disappear. Jacky F’s explanation worked first time.
So easy! Thank you!
