Have you ever tried to sew something by hand and the thread just keeps twisting?
I have seen great seamstresses have difficulty with this, and some suggest beeswax and all kinds of novel treatments to the thread.
What you really need to know is how to put the thread in the needle. Yes, you probably already know how to thread the needle, but do you know that every thread has a twist that only runs one way?
We have an article about this subject to help if you have twisting thread when you sew. You already know how? Do not cut the thread off the spool until you thread the needle. Then cut the thread and knot the end you just cut. It can make a difference in your hand sewing work.
Hope this is helpful to some of you!
Until next time!
