I love the loop method for 2 strands, but i really like the idea of the waste knot method for 3 strands. I do stamped cross stitching as it is easier on my eyes. Still a beginner so looking for help and I appreciate your videos. I save them so I can go back to them as needed.

I’m glad my videos help. I like to give options as everyone needs to find what works for them. I’ve been stitching 30 years and I still find new ways of doing things.
