What I have done is wind the full skein on a knitting bobbin (those flat plastic holders used when knitting in multiple colours). I unwind the length of my body standing up and separate out one strand in the same way as what has been described. I wind up the single strand and the double strand on their own knitting bobbins right away (3 bobbins in use). That way, I can split the floss without a staircase or window. It works well for me. Oh, and I make sure the cats are otherwise occupied, behind a closed door (grin).
