The latest Instagram video from Waste Knot has Lori explaining how to strand threads. Stranding is also called plying, and it's just separating the component parts of a length of thread and then putting them back together so that the thread lays flat better. Not all threads can be stranded--it's usually just cotton or silk flosses you need to separate and recombine before stitching.
