Perfect garland thread if you couch it on your Christmas canvas. Merry Christmas, Kreinik!

Someone mentioned how useful the Snag Nag-It can be if you have a stray thread that's worked its way to the front of a piece. Here is what it looks like.

If it seems too fat for your canvas, try using a short length of Kreinik size 4 very fine braid. Thread it in a needle without a knot on the end and pull the metallic thread all the way through the hole to the back. It will catch any stray lengths and pull them along.
