I know what a thread net is and does, but never used it before. I am using Mono.Poly monofilament thread and to keep it from getting knoted up and just unraveling I want to use a net, but my instruction booklet does not give instruction on loading it on the spool, I put the net on but the thread keeps knocking the net off. Do I put the net on before I thread my machine, or after . Can't seem to figure it out. thanks for your help.

Tons cheaper than Coats and Clark, and no more 30 mile one way trips to Walmart for neutral thread!

A hairnet for thread is a pretty good description!
Another way to use them if they keep riding up:
Don't trim them, stuff one end DOWN through the hole in the spool and then open the end as it comes through and pull it up over the thread. The other end will stick up from the middle of the spool. Now put it on your machine and the net can't get free and dance around the room.

renee, if you have gotten flowers with the little net that covers them, to keep them from getting messed us, those are the same things, and are very handy for cones of thread, those tend to slip down and the thread gets tangled underneath.
So Ladies, if you get flowers for Mother's Day, keep the thread nets! They will last longer than the flowers.
