Today's brief embellishment lesson is on The Wool and The Floss's Instagram account and demonstrates how to add a bow to your needlepoint.
Treenway silk ribbon is 3.5 mm wide while River Silks' ribbons are 4 mm, 7 mm or 13 mm. The width doesn't matter. The process is the same whether you use skinny ribbons or wide ones. You don't really have to use chenille needles, either, but they do really help as they are sharp and have a nice sized eye for flat ribbon-like threads.
