Three Minimalistic Sashiko Patterns to Achieve Even Stitches and for Visible Mending

[@craftdipper]

I love how you talk about the philosophy behind sashiko as well as demonstrating it so clearly for us. Thank you☺️💞

[@marijkeschellenbach2680]

I love the mending patch about three minutes into the video. You do such beautiful work and love how you teach us this craft.

[@peterskold2185]

Tack!

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Tack Peter! Thank you so much for your support!!! 🥰

[@firstnamelastname-uq9hr]

The best video so far on the net! Your voice is so easy to listen to and take in the info that i needed to get the rythm and stitch length.The patterns that you did are good practise, and , leaving the loop at the ends of rows,Thank-you for helping and educating us.

[@marefynn81]

What I like best is how the simplest stich of all looks so amazing on a pair of pants. If you just need to mend, you could learn just that basic stich to keep your clothes going. A basic set of sashiko mending supplies for a beginner is available for twenty dollars on Etsy and instead of tossing costly clothing and destroying the planet, you could make a work of art.

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's wonderful to see so many people appreciating the beauty of mending and the artistry involved in it.

Excellent lesson. Thank you 😊

[@zlatahume3134]

I have noted that hold the needle different from what I am used to, so if I try this technique I will have to create the needle support in your palm, all very interesting 😊

[@soniaschwarzenberg6988]

Excelente forma de mostrar como se trabaja esta técnica de bordado, me encanta. Siempre me habían costado las labores manuales porque terminaba aburriéndome, sin embargo sashiko me relaja un montón.

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

¡Gracias! Muy feliz de que los videos sean útiles. :)

[@paquiramon7009]

He descubierto recientemente el Sashiko y cuanto más lo miro más me gusta. Me relaja verte hacer tú Sashiko he activado los sustituíos porque desgraciadamente no hablo inglés, espero entenderlo con los subtítulos porque a veces las traducciones pueden llegar a ser un sin sentido 😅 Gracias por los tutoriales y recibe saludo desde Valencia (España) ❤

You just got a new new subscriber 😂!! I just loved your work can't wait to try hands on this technique. Your teaching is very helpful and easy to get. Just having one double, how to remove the pen marks that we made for our reference. Thank you in advance 🙏

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi, thank you so much! The pens I use are heat-erasable. You can find the link in the description under the video. You can get rid of them by applying heat on it. :)

Lindo demais!

Obrigada!

[@helenaylward5703]

When you "leave a tail" does the tail ever get snagged or caught and pull your stitches? I really enjoy your videos thank you for sharing them!

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hmmm… I’ve never noticed that… but I imagine it can happen, that’s why you want smooth out your fabric after you pull your needle. :)

[@randalllaue4042]

This needs to explore the new “Sewing Box”... not your grandmother or grandfathers sewing kits... WELCOME!

What do you use your 'ring' for. Never seen anything like this.

Gracias! I think you can turn on auto-translation for the video. KZbin has this feature. 🥰

[@queenmisanthrope]

How do you tie the knot with the needle? I’m not understanding how you did that

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi, here is a video that answers the questions. Happy stitching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/f53Fo3V7qamgkNksi=JoI4gV5B_anOjZYv

Its a wonderful idea 🥰🥰🥰😅😅

[@susanamedee1157]

What is that thing you slipped on your finger and it's purpose, please. Beautiful stitches! 😃

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi Susan, it's a sashiko palm thimble, very helpful when you do sashiko stitches. Here is a video on how you make it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIicZ5-mjbB0naM and this one explains how you use it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g16Yg4uEa7meaq8

[@jocelyneangol7422]

Does shrink fabric

[@sorayachaniifaa2104]

Hi! Can I use embroidery thread?

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi, embroidery thread may give you another look. You can use any thread, although cotton and sashiko threads are recommended because they are soft and easy to absorb water and moist, and also environmentally friendly. :)

[@sorayachaniifaa2104]

@@XiaoxiaoYarn thank you 😻

[@katrinawade3226]

I don't have volume, so I don't know if you've mentioned what type of pen you use for the marking. 😊

[@NinjaPiParadox]

They mentioned that its heat erasable in another video. Something like a pilot friction.

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi, you can checkout the description for the supply list. :)

Why do you have to leave that loop in the back?

[@NadinSkvo]

​@@XiaoxiaoYarnI have the same question. Sorry, but in this video you only repeat your words 'create a loop so that the fabric doesn't get stuck '. Could you, please, explain this point: stuck how? Stuck in what? Thank you beforehand.

[@NadinSkvo]

In the video you say 'create a loop so that the fabric doesn't get stuck '. Could you, please, explain this point: stuck how? Stuck in what? Thank you beforehand

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

@@NadinSkvo I meant to say "to avoid fabric bunching." Sorry for the confusion. :)

what pen are you using to draw the patterns?

Hmmmmm, the hogan zashi pattern is kind of inspiring me to make a sashiko Go board👀

When I did the knot wrapping the needle around it, I end up with two pieces of thread not one, it’s no longer a single thread.

do you need two pieces of fabric?

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Hi Erin, it depends, if you are using thin and loosely woven fabric, you can make it two layers. Hope it helps. :)

The hardest part about this is drawing grids, I cannot ever seem to make an even set of lines to save my life. 🥲

[@XiaoxiaoYarn]

Try attach the fabric to a cutting mat with grid and then draw lines according to the grid may help. :)

[@Jakumata]

I feel you. I started printing a grid on a fusable water soluble fleece that worked super well for my repairs.
