White Threads FlossTube #36 – More plaited braid stitch

Today’s episode of White Threads Floss Tube (number 36 – I can’t believe I’ve done that many already!) has wide ranging topics. They include how to choose the right needle size for your thread; a reader sample of plaited braid stitch successfully made using only my instructions; two plaited braid stitch projects both of which feature strawberries (and I don’t even like eating strawberries!); and a run down of all the wonderful things you’ll find on my blog, White Threads, around now.
