Welcome to leather craft 101, the new miniseries aimed at helping you get started on your leather craft journey.

In episode four I will show you how to hand stitch leather! We will go over the differences between machine and hand stitching, show you how to thread your needles so they don't fall off your thread and then show you both the modern way of stitching, where the holes are made with a stitching chisel as well as the traditional method using a stitching awl.

I hope you enjoy the video.
