[cool][font "Pristina"][green][size 4]Hi there tailgrabber and thanks for stopping by. I generally use the whip finish but have yet to master the finger method of applying a half hitch or two. My fingers are not that nimble, plus the thread gets caught on my rough skin. At times I will apply several half hitches using the hole at the end of my bodkin. BTW here is a link to a video on whip finishing that I posted last year.[/size][/green][/font]
[font "Pristina"][green][size 4]To answer your question I don't know of a video available that illustrates whipping with one's fingers. Those that can do it makes it look quite easy. Perhaps some of our other tiers might have a link to such a video.[/size][/green][/font]
