French Knots ...

My latest work in progress is a Christmas, (yes I know it's early but us stitchers have to get ahead), Biscornu which uses French Knots as eyes. I only recently "got" how to do a French Knot so I thought I would share this link http://www.ehow.com/video_2381641_do-french-knots-cross-stitching.html which shows you clearly how to do them.

All I can suggest if you still find them tricky is to load a hoop with some fabric and practice, practice, practice. If you still can't get the hang of them - use seed-beads =D
