ABOUT ME:
Thanks for visiting my channel, I hope you enjoyed the video! I founded Caterpillar Cross Stitch in 2015 when I tried desperately for months to find a modern baby sampler my mum could stitch for new baby Felicity that would fit in with her simple, contemporary nursery. I love cross stitch, running, baking fruit cakes, drinking gin, eating salted caramel ice cream and most crafts!
See you soon and happy stitching! Sally x - Jak na to + styl

Thank you for this tutorial!!! Confetti stitches make me crazy...not any more!!!😊
You are so welcome!
I like the second version , you always do a video on stuff I find useful.
Glad you like them!
My favorite is the modified pin stitch. It looks neat on both sides.
It's a little difficult to master and I haven't had great luck with it on linen, but it's definitely a useful trick to have in your arsenal!
Thank you for watching!
I loved the Will Robinson reference 😂
Thanks for watching!
Hey, Ford!
Thanks for the great tips. I’m thinking that weaving with low-contrast floss and pin this high-contrast. I appreciate people who find humour in their daily lives.
I haven’t x-stitched in decades-I’m a quilter-but I recently ordered a small kit of quilts on a clothesline. X-stitch will be great option for when I’m camping!
I recently subscribed to this channel, but I’m going to subscribe to yours as well.
🤖 “Danger! Danger! Will Robinson!” 😂🤣😂
Thank you, and stay well!

I definitely never go camping without a stitch to work on. A headlamp or book light can be very handy for that!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you very much that was very helpful. Plus your voice is very calming! Hugs
Thank you for watching! We're pleased to hear this tutorial has helped. You're right, Ford is an amazing presenter!
Thank you from a new stitcher! Great technique
Thanks for watching!
Glad it was helpful!
Wonderful! Never understood how that isolated pin stitches work!!!
Two additional thoughts...
Replace these with beads secured by a thread color which you can carry. This adds additional dimension to the piece.
Also, skip 'em!!!
Great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for another helpful video, keep them coming will be sure to watch.
You bet! We're pleased to hear that you are enjoying them!
Exactly what I needed!!! Thank you very much. You’ve been a great help.
We're glad to hear this video helped!
thank you very much that was extremely helpful
We're so glad it helped!
Great instruction, plus close up of last stitch was very helpful
Happy to be able to help!
Thanks for watching, we're pleased to hear Fords video helped!
Greetings from Bulgaria! Would you show us how to cross stitch with Kreiniak or other kind of metallic floss? Your videos rock! You are the first man I know to be interested in cross stitch. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great suggestion!
Great video🎉
Thank you for watching!
Thanks. Very helpful. I had not seen either of these methods before.
Thanks for watching! We're glad it helped!
I love your suggestions - thanks Ford! Do you/anyone have any suggestions for “confetti” French knots? For example “snowflakes” on a Christmas scene.
Thanks for watching! We do have a couple of videos on Confetti Stitches and French Knots - I've linked them below for you:

Thank you for replying - you guys are great!
Wonderful video! I’ve always wondered how to do this.
Thank you!
Thank you foe watching!
Very helpful video. How about one showing different ways to backstitch a steep angle.
Thanks
Thank you for watching!
So helpful!! You make it look easy. How does this work on higher count fabrics?
Hi Ford , another great video. Could you demo how to do confetti stitches on linen or evenweave fabric? Thank you
Great suggestion!
For the third method, modified pin/confetti stitch do you use a tapestry or sharp needle? Thanks.
For the modified pin stitch, should I use a 26 needle on 14 Aida cloth?
Hey Ford, thanks for the demo. Do you work on even weave, one over one? Do you have starts and finishes for confetti stiches for those too? BTW where's Nugget?
Love the channel! I’m relatively new to cross stitch (working through the cross stitch school bookmark project). One of my biggest sources of anxiety is knowing how long each thread of floss should last (how many half-stitches can be done before turning around and completing the stitches without running out of floss too soon). It may be a super noob question, but I have no one else to ask. Please help by addressing how you approach this!
I feel like I mostly go based on instinct, but I'll see if I can suss out some tips!
It's trial and error to start with! At first practise guessing when you will be halfway thru your length of thread , then after awhile you will find you can judge things quite nicely! 😊
A lot of our community members measure the thread against their forearm, up to their elbow.
Does the pin stitch only work for very dark threads? It looks like it would be pretty noticeable if done with another color - like a bright red that would show just as much behind, seems like it would also show the pin stitch (or at least it would lay noticeably different than ones other stitches)? This has always been my concern about pin stitches in general.
👍❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for watching!
Where do we find your patterns by the way I'm not on Facebook or Pinterest
Thank you for watching and for your interest. You can find our patterns on our website : www.caterpillarcrossstitch.com
How do I handle these stitches when using called for 3 strands. I can't do a loop start so am stuck.
You can do a loop start with 3 stands.
Watch CCS video on 6 ways to start your thread. It's not Ford doing the video, but it's still really good! I sometimes use 3 strands and use the loop method
Thanks for watching! We hope the video suggested by @SWEETDFAN17 helps, you can find it here czcams.com/video/87Aqqoqsrfg/video.htmlfeature=shared
Why not do a loop finish to lock the stitch?
Thanks for the tip!
