Welcome to our roundup of cross-stitch designers that also have a YouTube channel aka Flosstube.
“Who to follow on Flosstube?” is a commonly asked question that shows up in our blog analytics. It’s a tough question because it is up to one’s individual tastes, but we at Frogging News thought we could help by doing some roundups. This list of Flosstubers are cross-stitch pattern designers that are either self-published or published through distributors. We are also working on a separate roundup of shop owners, fabric or floss dyers, etc.
Cross-stitch designer and blogger Lord Libidan put together a list of The Best FlossTube Channels sorted by number of followers. That is a good place to get started especially since he also adds pet sightings!
The following list of cross-stitch designers on YouTube is simply in alphabetical order.
