Jeri is right that using several colours of magic threads is better than all one colour, especially if your lace is made of very fine threads where all the pins are close together.

When using magic threads, I find it even easier if I use silk threads (e.g. Piper's 90/3) rather than cotton. Silk slides through the loops more easily and is stronger.

It has just occurred to me that this would be a good use of threads left on bobbins at the end of a project.
