Subject: [lace] Separating embroidery floss


I have read most of your letters on this subject. But what do you do when you don't have a staircase, a balcony or a second floor. Do I have to go up on the roof? <BG> I have tried several methods of separating the embroidery floss and still haven't come up with the perfect solution. If I'm not mistaken there are 25 meters in a skein. It isn't easy to separate them by pulling just one thread out from the whole length. I have tried cutting the thread by length needed for winding on the bobbin, but also this wasn't perfect. I finally got to the stage of separating it into 3 threads and then pulling one out. Not one of the methods is perfect.
