In needlepoint you should always come up in an empty hole and down into a hole with a stitch that is already there in the row above or below. If you do this, you’ll never have the fuzzy yarn or loops or knotting problems. This also helps your tension to be more consistent.

I made many needlepoint projects years ago. I started to get the urge to pick it up again, and I've ordered a kit. This was a good refresher.

yay- it's super exciting to have you🧡 Happy making!

Thanks. I bought the fabric from a charity shop and wanted a reminder how to do this. Think I’ll go with the continental stitch. I bought left over threads from the charity shop too, it’s the thicker version. I think they have a number 4 on them so hopefully that’s the correct version.

Thank you for showing me yours is so neat I will get a kit but just a wee one to see if I can do it. It’s great to watch you I have learnt so much. Thank you again. 😘😘😘 xxx

Hi! I love your yellow drawers near you!! Is this where you store all your yarns?

to stop the fluffy wool stitch in an open hole down in a used hole

Hi I have tapestry love doing them. I brought one the other day some of the colour I would like to change do you think it would be ok?

Hi 👋 how do I start the first row?

So what about the knot on the end?

Can you demonstrate actually starting the canvas?

Is the continental stitch the same as tent stitch please. It would be great to see an example of starting the kit too:)

Yep, they are the same. It says on their "tapestry" blog.

Can you show how to use stretcher bars? Thank you

Hi

Hi, first comment!!

Forgive my ignorance, but isn’t this cross-stitch rather than tapestry?

Depending on where you are in the world, you can call it either ❤️🥰

This is not tapestry, this is cross stitch.

@@lovecraftscom It says right there: "Also known as needlepoint in the UK". In case you didn't already know, tapestry is a form of *handweaving* art where you weave the whole fabric through the vertical 'warp' threads, changing colour as needed to create an image.

This isn’t tapestry, it’s needlepoint

In the UK it is normally referred to this as tapestry 🧡🥰

You don't actually show us how to complete the design, ... when we have to change from one colour etc. You haven't replied to anyone's questions.

Hi can you share the info where we can order the needlepoint tapestry kits ?
