That pink hair tape you can get from Sally Beauty Supply works well for eliminating thread "residue" from unstitching as well as temporarily anchoring and parking threads. Some of my canvases are quite, shall we say, interesting that way. It makes the "spaghetti" less hazardous to your stitching.

Great tip, SL! I wonder if I can find pink hair tape here? Shopping opportunities are---shall we say?--LIMITED. If Walmart doesn't carry it....
