I need to learn to hand tie my skirts. Very professional looking
It is very easy to do. I get wire from hobby lobby and cut about a 3" section of wire to work with. The thinner the wire the easier it is to work with, especially if you're tying skirts without a vice like me. I lay my wire on the table, lay my bottom layers on the wire, then my head, then my top layers. Bend the wire up and over the top of the jig neck and back to the back side and twist the wires together until very tight (if you tighten too much they will break) and then snip them fairly close to the neck of the jig. Bend the remaining twisted wire down flat against the neck of the jig and you're good to go.
