You can avoid the tedious business of pulling the threads through to the wrong side by knotting the threads over the ones already tied off. It's a bit difficult to explain in words but basically you tie the first knot with the innermost threads (of the trail) and lay them down between the threads waiting to be tied. Tie the next knot over these threads and again lay the threads between those waiting to be tied. The next knot is tied over two sets of threads and so on. You end up with all the threads underneath. Much easier than taking each thread in turn through to the back.
