Introdução
This guide demonstrates two techniques for knotting the thread to the fabric when hand sewing. These knot types secure the thread to the fabric so that it doesn't move or pull through while you're sewing. They can be used to secure a stitch line at the beginning and at the end.

On the backside of the fabric, make a very small stitch.

Pull the thread through, leaving a short tail of approximately 1/2 inch (~13 mm) to 1 inch (~25 mm).
-
Make another small stitch in the same area. Leave the needle piercing the fabric without pulling it all the way through.

Take the thread that's emerging from the stitch and wrap it around the needle.

Wrap the thread around the needle a second time.
