Fireline braided beading thread gets tangled easily while Im using it. How can I prevent this?
Although Fireline is a strong, durable thread for beadweaving, the tail end of the thread (the shorter side) has a tendency to wrap itself around the working end, causing tangling and knotting. If you keep the tail end as short as possible (less than 2 inches), this type of tangling can be minimized. Another idea is to use Thread Heaven thread conditioner on Fireline. Although Fireline will not absorb Thread Heaven the way Nymo or other threads will, Thread Heaven does seem to reduce tangling.
