Thank you so much for this tutorial because I purchased some variegated floss and I wasn't aware of the proper way to use it.

You’re very welcome! I hope you enjoy stitching with your new floss, and if you have questions as you begin stitching, I’ll be happy to answer them. ☺️

Thanks for the video. Using white Aida and a hoop to keep the fabric stiff might make it easier for us to see.

You’re welcome! Thanks for letting me know about the fabric. I’ll keep that in mind for future videos. 😊

Thank you for this video. I've tried to stitch with variegated floss but have had the best luck. This helped me a lot. My only question is: how long do you make your length of floss?

[@thecrazycrossstitchlady]

You’re very welcome! Since I don’t use the loop method with variegated floss (I just catch the tail with the next stitches), I make the length about 15 inches (or the length from my elbow to my fingertips.)

When you show the last variegate stitch can you show it a little slower

[@thecrazycrossstitchlady]

Sure. Some people were asking me to show my stitches on white Aida and use a hoop so they can see them better, so I will do a “reboot” video later this week or this weekend for you all. Thanks for watching!
