A word of caution for beginners: Watch where your fingers are in relation to the direction the pointer is going. That thing can and will jam itself into your finger when the thread is cut and the seam ripper moves forward. It hurts like the dickens and you can end up with blood on your fabric, which is something nobody wants! 😫😫😫

Great tip about using straight pin in buttonhole!

I also keep a seam ripper in my kitchen where it is handy to open bottles that have tight-sealing plastic, to remove labels from cans or bottles and to get plastic off of cucumbers.

If you have a lot of ripped thread bits to remove, try using a sticky tape lint roller. Cleans that right up in most cases.

I use masking tape or a tape lint roller to clean up the threads that land on my ironing board as well. It's a handy tool! Thanks @paraboo8994 for the helpful tip!

I think I seam rip more than sew. I’m a real seam ripper pro.

Great video! I use my seam ripper the most to bring the threads to one side of the fabric to tie off :)

I’ve been sewing for over 50 years, and didn’t know until recently that the seam ripper could get dull and need replacing. Doh. Also, it seems that I rip out all or part of every seam, no matter how careful I am. I could make twice as many projects if that didn’t happen.

I recently bought a fiskars suction mounted seam ripper. It takes a bit of getting used to, but it really is a game changer.

Undeniably a necessary tool. I keep a bunch around. Near thread catcher in front of my sewing machine and serger. Another by my cutting mat. Keep one in my hand sewing kit. And a bunch of backup seam rippers stashed in drawers and wherever I have scissors. The ones with a thin, tiny handle are more difficult to use with arthritis. But I prefer them with delicate fabric to remind myself to be gentle. If you have a long seam, or multiple seams to remove, the small seam ripper can be too frustrating and painful.

@2doodledo 3 жыл бұрын

Wind tape around the handle end to make it easier to hold. Arthritis is not fun.

You don’t. Unfortunately, you just trash it and purchase a new one. 😕

@@lhughescca you’re welcome. My boyfriend actually suggested using the small section of a flexcut brand stropping block and stropping compound crayon (he highly recommends this brand specifically). He said you can KZfaq how it’s used to sharpen woodcarving tools and apply the technique to sharpening needles and the seam ripper and such. I’m about to try it out if I can locate our compound crayon!

This video is heaps better than your seam ripper video from 11 years ago, you should probably take down that video it's not good information and makes you appear to not know what's up, which you clearly do know your craft. I suppose you've come a long way in 11 years, might be time for cleaning up your portfolio
