Literally cannot figure out how you make the knot. I've rewatched this a dozen times and doesn't get angry clearer. Next video
You guys make hand-stitching pants look so cool!
I learned, I learned how to mend it!!!!!! FINALLY!!! I'm happy! I just want to thank youuuu! These are one of the basic things in life to learn and they're important for everyone . Thank you again.
This series is a great idea, Jon!
You had me amazed at making the knot at the very beginning. Thank you!!
This is going to be a fantastic series! Can’t wait.
Worked like a charm! I couldn't seem to do the knot thing but I just did the loop and the technique worked perfectly! Thank you!!
Thank you guys! It looks very nice!
Awesome! I already favorited to check when needed, thanks
Thanks a lot sir. I just fixed my Levi's 501 CT that is discontinued . There was 2 holes at the knees after years of hard use in the workplace. Wearing it for 5 years and still can't find a replacement. Your lesson really helped. All the best for your business!
He made that look way too easy! Gonna have to watch this over and over again in half speed!
Keep those Levi’s fresh!
@@The_Kavalier Well dont! If you wash them the dye goes out, and we dont want that!
As a man who has to always get his clothes tailored this video is a life saver. Luis I will be subscribing to your channel. Thank you for the awesome and easy to follow tutorial. Jon as always awesome content.
We’ll be did a shirt tailoring video too!
Need better instruction about making that initial knot.
Yeah, it’s really not clear.
Ok I’m seeing this now. I’ll take a look. Thank you
In this video when you tie a knot do you use both strands wrapped around the needle or one.
The better instruction video opened to cars.
We need a slow motion knot
Yeah- I replayed that part of few times because I’d never seen it before. I couldn’t tell exactly what he was doing under his thumb and the needle. I think it will work though when I try it.
thanks for the video. at 1:33 I literally thought "WHAT MANNER OF SORCERY IS THIS!" lol
Totally worked. Kind of couldn't believe how simple it was.
Watching two fine men sewing really got me focusing lol. This really helps! Thanks~
The amount of truth in this comment, though lol 😆😜. Definitely a bonus focus motivator lol.
Thanks for this content. Much needed
Awesome!
This was so good thank you it worked well for me and i did it twice again without needing the video!!
Amazing!!!! Thank you so much!
Nice one! Cannot wait to practice it anytime soon! Thanks for also providing us with priceless tips on how to handle things that were not planned to happen! haha
thank you!! i couldnt believe this was that easy, thought it would be a really monumental task but i got it done really quickly :DD
Thanks! Just repaired one of my favorite jeans. :D
Thank you ! I had a hole in my work pants and figured I could use this as a temporary fix until I get them fixed professionally. Worked great.
A year later, I'm facing the same problem this video just helped. 😅
This can actually help me wow I gonna need this soon. Thank you!
Our pleasure!
This is what I needed. Stitching on my coveralls ripped 😒. Thanks
Nice video! I’m on a covid qt, so I’m going to repair some pants…among other things!
Thanks for posting this, guys!
That’s much better technique I taught myself. Thank you!! I don’t yet sew but I mend quite a bit. Great job in showing is exactly what you were doing.
I meant to say that this a much better technique than the one I taught myself. Of course- You’re a tailor!!
LOL
Thank you Lewis for helping me save a $300 pair of Jeans, really thank you bro 💪🏾👌🏾
Thx
That’s gonna save me some jeans and a cold crotch here in iowa currently clocking in at 37F at an outdoors job
Pull the needle through, and there's your knot...Not!
Apparently, you are supposed to take the long end of the string and wrap it around the needle. I had to look at another video for a starting knot
Such a troll that knot
You just saved my goodwill pants! It took me three tries but they look great I work at a ranch so I ride horses a lot and my pants get wore out pretty quick in the crotch!
Just tore my work pants at the knee hopefully this helps
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I couldn’t fix any of my boyfriends jeans!!!
Thank you so much! I blew out a month old pair of jeans, and now it’s like it never happened!
Quarantine brought me here. Didn't realise there was that many basic things I need to learn until isolation!
Good tutorial, thanks
What wonderful techniques! Jon, I see your shoulders, triceps and biceps are filling out nicely! Well done.
This was even shot in mid-January 😏
@@The_Kavalier You mean you haven't started your gym routine yet?! Wow. LOL
Tome like !
hey there i dont know anything about sewing so ill ask you: is it ok once ive finished this tutorial and my torn jeans, to do it again in the same place to make sure it doesnt come undone? might be a stupid question haha but im just scared since its the first thing ive ever sewn. dont really trust my first go round. plz reply thanks!
I suck at sewing so this was Informative
Didn’t get that merit badge huh?
@@The_Kavalier nope I did not :) and if it wasn't for the cooking part in home ec in middle school I would have failed sewing class lol
Every time I try to do a ladder stitch of the sort the thread will break. It may be the hole, it may be the thread. I'm wondering what thread weight should I use if that's the case?
I literally can't even put the knot in the thread wtf
LouisTheKIng61 he should slow it down and help us understand how looping it 3 x around the needle makes a knot. Mine just pulls out straight
I CAME TO THE COMMENTS FOR THE SAME THING. glad I’m not alone. 😂
@@amandalee714 Click the Settings Icon (looks like a little gear at the bottom right side of the video on PC, or 3 vertical dots top right on Mobile) then Playback Speed, set it to 0.5 or 0.25. I watched it at this speed a couple of times, and it helped me to see his finger movements better.
@@G2097 THANK YOU
Sometimes that IS a bitch, right? Lol.
Thx a lot. You save my life. also, save my keys.
So great to see people take pride in age-old arts like this. Great video. Keep 'em coming.
PS ~ Commenters, don't be so useless. The initial knot is the easiest part of this drill. Keep trying until you figure it out.
THANK YOU!!! Short, easy, that's all I need. My search results: No I don't want to make torn jeans, if you're not naturally tearing them up then you're a poser
link to slower instruction on the initial knot, she shows a right- and lefthanded approach. czcams.com/video/PowkA9Bojlo/video.html
I dont understand how to make the knot at 1:30
can anyone explain?
I did this before & I had to throw away my favorite jeans because of my thunder thighs I wish I was well aware of fusing fabric 😭😢
Every time I tighten the thread it snaps like it’s completely useless ☹️
I'm just now starting to learn how to sew at 24. I'm a wife and mother of 3 girls. My husband is 6'4 145lbs with a broad chest, i can't for the life of me find a shirt to fit him, or pants that'll stay up... Is there any way I could take his pants in by hand? I have a machine but I prefer hand sewing. Also, is there a specific pattered used for hemming denim?
I plan on teaching my children how to sew once they are old enough :)
6'4 145 damn u need to get him size small tall clothes
Literally cannot get past the threading needle part. I must be stupid because im just not getting the result. Doing exactly the same thing.
This is completely wrong! You want to replace the hole in the fabric with another piece of iron-on jean material first. You patch up the hole with the material by sewing around the seam and hole and then iron it to seal the tear. You DON'T sew up the tear completely! Otherwise, the jeans will come out uneven in the crotch and still be prone to future tears. I guarantee these jeans will rip again after a few wears.
You're right and at 2:50 in the video I made a reference to the iron on fusing because in the case of this pant it ripped from being worn out. It wouldn't hurt to add it even to a fresh tear for that fact. As far as it being uneven with a minor straight line tear you won't see a noticeable difference unless the person's jeans are painted on and that's a bigger problem in my opinion. But great points and some jeans are so worn out that it wouldn't be worth saving.
i dont have any other material besides needle and thread. they made it simple for a reason and this video is perfect for people like me who dont have extra sewing supplies lying around
Or you could just do what my dad does and STAPLE your pants lolol
The explanation for tying the needle isn't very helpful
Can't even make the knot he made, so confused
Wizardry.......
To any of the men out there struggling with the knot, because his instructions were shit, it's a fucking *UNI KNOT.* I had to ask a furry after failing to understand his directions 100 times. A furry showed me better than a professional tailor.
Ok, moving on from knot.
Bro learn how to explain better...the knot thing took me an hour and 3 other videos to do.
At some point you lost your clothes off your back. .
Jk it's a series.
