Aari Chain Stitch - Part II

Today I am going to post a clear video demo of how to finish the aari chain stitch in Aari work. In my previous Aari chain stitch video, making the knot at the end of the chain stitch is not very clear, so I am posting this video to show how to make the knot. This video is very clear and I am sure it will clear all your doubts. It is very important in Aari embroidery that if you didn't put the knot perfectly,the whole design will come off. So please practice this technique again and again before going to the next step. I am working on my other videos and will post the next step in Aari embroidery/ Aari work like curves and sharp turnings. I will post it soon. Look forward for more videos on Aari work and embroidery designs.
