Thread nets are used on cone thread. Here's a link to a picture, although the netting is more traditional sold in small pieces:

Thread coming off a cone should be fed up (not from the side). Thread nets prevent thread from pooling down below the spool end and keep the thread feeding up smoothly.

There are a many kinds. The only one that might be inexpensive is plain stockinette. We use it for lining casts etc.. There some really nice stuff called Surgifix we used on the burn unit. It is like the netting only instead of being hard plastic it's soft like a cotton/spandex blend.
