How to Easily Thread 6 Strands of Embroidery Floss on a Needle

- Trying to shove 6 strands of embroidery floss through an eye of a needle can be hard! In my efforts to find the best needle threader for embroidery, I found that most needle threaders aren’t equipped to handle that many strands of thread. So what can you do? I’ve discovered a little trick for how to easily thread 6 strands of embroidery floss on a needle, that I like to call the “double up method”. Basically it makes it so you only have to thread 3 strands of floss, but end up having 6 strands to stitch with.

Genius. And so simple! I just bought my first embroidery pack and am threading the needle by hand. I didn't even know that there are special needle threader tools! So, threading six strands takes FOREVER! I will buy the tool, but until then threading three at a time will be so much faster! Thank you.
Wow! Thank you so much for this info. I have been struggling all morning to thread my needle with six strands. Your idea worked perfectly for me. Bravo!
This also eliminates the worry of the floss slipping out of the needle eye. Wow.
I love your videos so much. They've helped me a lot. Thank you !!
This was super helpful. Thank you!
Oh this is genius, I’m using this when I get home!
as usual fabulous👌🏻❤. upload regular videos
super useful!!
Thank you 😊
Thank you!! Newbie here 😊
Hmm. I'm imagining a very long trail of thread, depending on how much area you planned on embroidering. Having said that, this sure is a nifty way of manipulating a full 6 strands, if that is the desired intensity of sewing!
Ah hah! Brilliant! 🙏
Is breaking the floss up into 6 separate strands necessary, or can I just use the floss as normal?
You can just use it as normal. Some people like to separate it to give it a fuller look. I never do.
@@CutesyCrafts Thank you!!!
Could you do how to end an embroidery stitch
Yassssssss!
Didn't know that I've been doing it all wrong. When a pattern calls for 6 strands of floss, I'd take literally 6 strands and spend 10 minutes push them through the needle. Thanks for sharing. Is double threading the convention in embroidery? I mean, when a pattern calls for 2 strands -> take 1 strand, 4 strands -> take 2 etc?
You haven't been doing it wrong, this is just a way to make it easier for 6 strands. I would only do this if threading 6 strands is a struggle. It makes it so you can't easily get the needle off the thread when it tangles, so it's a bit of a trade off. Definitely not the convention in embroidery, but it makes it more accessible to some people.
Do you know how to take One thread with 6 strands and dismantle them? I'm having some trouble with that
