Wrapped Chain Stitch Tutorial

Lynndlpt over at Instagram has posted a video tutorial on using wrapped chain stitch for lettering.

The chain stitch is worked in Petite Very Velvet for the narrower part of the letters and regular Very Velvet for the wider parts.  The wraps over the underlying chain stitch are worked with Neon Rays.

Note that Lynndlpt used a flat iron (the kind for hair but buy a cheap one to use just for threads--no hair product on your threads, please!) to smooth the Neon Rays, a laying tool to help the Neon Rays lay flat, and Fray Check to protect the Neon Rays once they are stitched.
