Yes but now we don't have to go on an archeological dig through the sewing basket to find the damn thing!!!

I persisted. It will take a while to be a reliable knack.
With plain thread (licked?)
1 Check needle is threadable. Pick one you can do by eye first ;-)
2 Find firm slightly calloused skin (feet may help)
3 Shortish quick firm strokes til it snarls. Keep going. Check the bunching
