You can use a technique called "Railroading" to prevent the floss from twisting!
Here’s how to do it :
Stitch by bringing the needle up through the fabric and pull the floss along the fabric in the direction that the stitch will go (so the floss is lying flat over the hole where the needle will go down). If the strands are not perfectly flat and parallel, give them a flick with your fingernail to smooth them. Then insert the needle between the strands (be careful not to split a strand) and go down to complete the leg.
Below are more detailed steps:
- pull needle up from the fabric
- use fingers to hold the floss
- needle go down in between of the floss
- the 1st half stitch done
- repeat the same for the other half stitch
- done for full stitch
After sometimes, when you are used to this stitching method, you may not need to hold your floss with fingers, and directly put the needle go through the between of the flosses.
Here are the effects of the "Railroading" stitching method:
