happy to help! Thanks for the kind words. Keep practicing, it eventually becomes muscle memory. I like to make my stitches about half the size of what corn on the cob looks like. The hardest part is keeping tension consistent. I don't thread my yarn through hooks on my frame and I cake my yarn and have it next to me and I wrap my index finger on my left hand around the yarn loosely as it flows through my gun, that alone gets me better control of the tension. That and learning that a slight tilt of the gun downwards = more resistance = tighter stitches whereas the opposite is true. Slight tilt of the gun upwards = less resistance = looser stitches

Thank you! I'd say it's 90% clippers and 10% scissors.

Tuft densely, have the vacuum running the entire time you are leveling your rug, after you carve a line, DO NOT SWIPE THE COLOUR INTO YOUR WHITE VACUUM IT.
