Of all hand stitches, I think the French Knot is the most useful and beautiful when applied to felt.

And the one I have never been able to get right. Maybe these instructions will finally get through my head, and into my fingers.

Yep, I'm still doing it. I did a couple of those ones from last week, but they're too big and 'waste' too much thread to just do a load for practice, I'll try to use it when I have more time. It'll probably be the same with french knots. I do need the prectise though, sometimes they come out nice, sometimes not

Hope you have found your glasses Karen? I have been enjoying doing the TAST stitches but have not done all of them, nice not to feel too much pressure if you have a busy week and can't do one you can just go at your own pace.

I've seen a few people post pics to the flickr group of work using two or three weeks' stitches, that makes more sense to combine them sometimes.
