I understand now! Even after watching my professor do it, it still took me awhile to figure out the mechanics of the crossover.

We had a discussion on here awhile back about not doing the crossover, starting from the top thread. I had several tries and could not master this without doing exactly what was happening to you.

If it helps, once I've done the crossover I tend to work at an angle so that my left hand is almost parallel to the anchor thread, rather than perpendicular. This seems to encourage the anchor thread to sit down nicely as I tie down the staple.

Best of luck! I personally found the tying on stuff much harder than the scraping part of reedmaking.
