Someone posted a tool to pull thread loops through to the back. I can't find the post. Does anyone remember this. It was supposed to be available at Joann's.

I just use a sewing machine needle.

I agree with Cari, but on occasion I've used my mom's Knit Picker. It looks like a miniature latch hook. Could that have been it?

I suppose you could also use a Snag Nab It, but at that point I really just think you may as well use a needle.

Thread both ends of a thread through a needle and make a loop. Use that to pull the thread through. No need to pay for a special tool.

I have one similar to this:

I also use it to pull loops to the back in knit shirts where they have been snagged.

Thread a needle. Put the needle and thread through the loop. Tie a knot with the thread and cut the tail of thread fairly close to the knot. Place needle through the fabric and pull the thread loop to the back side of the fabric. If the tail of the thread is still on the top of the fabric, you will need to cut it shorter. On the back side of the fabric, cut the thread. I made this sound too complicated. Essentially you "catch" the thread loop and pull it through the fabric to the back.

A small crochet hook works wonders.

I have one, don't like it because it bends a crochet hook works better!!

I have one, it has a sort of rasp end to it. I don't like it at all. Out of 4 threads I tried to bury, it broke 3 of them. So instead of a few loops, I now had a ruined project.

I use a thread pick - this one: http://www.bobbincentral.com/accesso...ad-picker.html and sometimes a needle from the back side and just snag the loose thread and pull the excess to the back. I can usually tell which thread it is by the longer bobbin thread if my bobbin thread is a different color, or seeing the knot in the wrong spot. I hope that makes sense, it makes sense in my head.
