To conquer the French Knot

The french knot is the most frustrating stitch in embroidery I have found to date.  I just mess it up more than it seems to work out.  Here is a video that might help me in my quest to succeed in making a french knot.  This piece here took her about 4 hours to do!  That's a lotta knotting!

The French Knot

I can't get enough of embroidery. I just wanna do it all the time. I was excited to see this tutorial from Jenny Hart. I swear I am gonna master the french knot...or at least not be scared of it anymore. I just decided to make a colonial knot because it was easier but there is nothing quite like the frenchy. Thank you Jenny! Maybe if I still can't figure it out I will ask her to show me when she is here for Urban Craft Uprising
