Thank you, this is very interesting and it does look very neat. My problem usually is, as someone mentioned, I end up with one strand significantly shorter than the other. Yet, I wonder, with this method, is it possible to "undo" the stitches? I am making mistakes quite regularly and have to go back. With normal stitches it is not difficult, but i wonder how it would be when one uses this method. If someone has experience about this, I would be very interested.

Hi, you just unpick the same as normal all you are doing with railroading is making the stitches lay flat and the thread from twisting as you do the stitch. You use this method when using two threads together 2 over 2 sounpicking is just the same.Hope this helps.

Great tip and I have tried last year but it really took a longer time to finish a piece. Therefore, I gave it up...

I have never tried this but it would certainly make your stitching more even especially if you are stitchingblock of colour.Thank you.
