cats make *everything* better, haha. as a left-handed newbie, i appreciate you actually showing the process for a lefty, instead of just saying "...and if you're left-handed, just mirror this" or something similar. thank you!
Thanks for the reminder Sarah. Always glad of some revision.
Phoebe is purring to Ginger Cat! She believes that every stitcher needs feline supervision and this time Peter is in complete agreement. She also believes that anyone in the kitchen also needs her supervision, so baking one cake and starting to decorate another this evening could get interesting!
Thank you for showing the left handed french knot.
Thank you for taking a little time to let us enjoy your ginger cat. 😸
You had my attention and appreciation even before the orange kitty! What a cutie! And thank you for the great tutorial!
I have really learned a lot in your video's. Thank you for that. My favorite one's are when your cat decides to make an appearance! Very nice looking cat! 😺♥
Wonderful instructions and a lovely chuckle as bonus. Ginger Cat strikes again!
I’m horrible with French knots! I love your special guest. 😻

Just worked French knots on my sampler. I nailed it every time! ❤ Thank you Sarah! I also watched the full version and it was very informative and I am glad I watched the full version also!
Very helpful, thank you! I have been trying to learn via a book and I just couldn't see what I was getting wrong. This is gold!

He doesn't normaly show that much interest Anne!
New subscriber, new stitch and beader. Love your channel. Learning so much. Thank you!
Welcome Maura!
When I started practicing French knots, it looked like morse code!
Upstaged by a cat. 😁🐈
Always upstaged by the 🐱!
Wow beautiful work👌👌
Thanks Sarah, I've away from embroidery for a while and couldn't figure out why my knots weren't working. TFS
Hope they are working now AstraSG!
@@SarahHomfrayEmbroidery Yes! Thanks to you--looking at my stitching books are no substitute!!
Dear Sarah, I'm in Australia, I've been watching your tutorials for some time, I've recommended you too so many women. I can't keep learning from you without paying. I just don't know how I subscribe. Can you help me! Meg Australia
My cats love to disturb or sit on my hoop while im doing embroidery XD
Is the trick having the material taught? Everyone says embroidery is fun, embroidery is easy, embroidery is relaxing and i believed them and it was until i tried to make a French knot. I end up with a dot on the material where the knot should be actually I managed to do a French knot on the reverse of my work. I hope you have some idea of where I’m going wrong. Hugs and Loves xx
How does this work if you are working with a new thread? 🙂
I don't understand the question Kathleen, a new thread?
If I'm starting my French knots with a fresh piece of cotton, how can I keep the thread tight while doing the French knot, as I'm having to hold the loop at the back with one hand. 🙂
Years ago I did something called candlewicking. It was cream colored thread on cream colored muslin. It was all French knots, I think. Is that something you’ve heard of? Am I remembering it correctly?
I think candlewicking uses colonial knots Janet; like a french knot with an extra wrap to it (see our video on colonial knots!) but yes otherwise I think you are remembering it right! A good example of people using the materials they could readily get!
It’s always good to see the pussycat
