Can anyone just tell me how to normally tie a knot on the thread? I keep struggling with each persons “neat trick” because I have hands on the more masculine side for a female.

[@craigwilson8255]

Grab your double end of string, make a loop and put the double end through the loop and pull tight. This video is probably easier though...

[@averageeughenjoyer6429]

Be lazy and superglue

[@STmisiR]

Grab the end of the 2 strings, hold them together with your thumb and pointer finger in your left hand. Wrap the string around your pointer finger (once) and pull it off of your finger, leaving you with a loop. Put the rest of the END of the string through the loop, and it should make a knot. Do this about 3-4 times. I’m bad at explaining things, hope this helped!

My cat loves to sleep on the bottom of it and destroy the fragile material, so he basically is on the floor but still on the wardrobe. He is a weirdo but a cutie either way. I am for sure going to use this skill to fix it and upgrade it for him with some new fabric! Thanks so much!

[@akllls617]

What do you do when you run out of thread and whatever you’re sewing isn’t done yet ? Just start where you left of ? I usually use a machine so it’s just one continuous thread is that the same in hand sewing or as long as you have that knot it doesn’t matter how many times you start over from where You left off ?

[@SewAnastasia]

Knot off and start again.

Unfortunately, a pocket got stuck behind a door handle and got partially ripped open (it's a U pocket, and one of the edges plus the corner going to the bottom was ripped loose). I'm 26 and now I sewed for the first time, thanks to you! Thanks to your video, I have a functioning pocket again! (is it pretty? No need for that... Are the stitches straight, or evenly sized? No need for that! Did I pay attention to what's inside and outside? Oops..... Does it feel strong? YES!!!) Did i already thank you? :)

In doing projects like sewing a pouch how do you know the measurements of the thread if you have to cut it?

[@SewAnastasia]

You never want to hand sew with more then 2 feet of thread or it gets tangled.... so you will end the line with a knot and start again.
