LESSON 74: PORTUGUESE KNITTED CORD KNIT

Tutorial for Portuguese knotted cord stitch:

We present you the tutorial for Portuguese knotted cord stitch. A precious point.

It can also be embroidered in the same color or different fabric depending on the final effect we want to achieve. Work from right to left.

Start by pulling the needle out at 1, with the thread to the left.

Haz un pequeño punto lineal cruzando la línea de 2 a 3 con el hilo enlazado como se muestra en la foto.

Tensa el hilo para formar un pequeño nudo.

Repite poniendo los nudos al espacio que quieras.

Se remata insertando la aguja fuera del último nudo. Si trabajas las hileras muy juntas entre sí se verá como un relleno. Entonces tendrás que cuadrar los nudos en los espacios en blanco de la fila inmediatamente superior.

Se suele usar en líneas curvas y rectas con efecto de bordado con cuentas o abalorios. Se crea una textura de relleno.

From here we invite you to try it and you will be surprised by the effect. It does not go unnoticed. I encourage you to try and you will love it.

Follow the tutorial step by step and you will see how while you are sewing you can think of other ways to make other stitches, even combined with all the ones that I am putting here. You can use it both in borders, as in curtains, sheets, towels etc. or as a simple ornament point in one of your paintings. It is best to follow the video step by step here:

Materials

• You need a blunt needle. In your trusted haberdashery they can advise you on this.
• Thimble, we know that it is not easy to get used to it, but the earlier you adapt, the better, you will avoid many punctures.
• Special pearl or mouliné thread. Or you can also use fine crochet yarn
• Frame, there are made of wood, plastic and silicone. Lately I spend the silicone ones because I like them better, but that goes to taste.
• Light, the more the better and to be able to be natural
