Threading a cross stitch needle is a simple process that ensures you're ready to start stitching.
Here's how to do it:
-
Prepare the thread: Cut the desired length of floss and separate the strands as needed for your pattern.
-
Prepare the thread end: According to the reference, to thread a cross stitch needle, "get just the tip of the thread in my fingers [and] line it up with the eye of the needle."
-
Thread the Needle:
- Hold the needle in one hand and the prepared thread end in the other.
- Insert the tip of the thread through the eye of the needle.
- "Just push it through so you'll want a couple inches sticking out here."
