    Default Wool hand stitching
    I'm doing the blanket stitch on some wool. How can I get the points to look right? I'm doing a holly leaf but the points aren't standing out like I'd like. Any suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Joan

    This winter I made my first wool candle mat. What helped me the most was a video on YouTube. Try googling blanket stitch on YouTube and you might find a solution.
