@gothorella: You might want to think twice before grabbing thread from the thrift shop! šŸ§µ . Lots of things can affect how long the thread will last including: sun exposure, moisture, the quality of the thread, the material of the spool (plastic > wood/ foam) ,and the thread material (polyester will last longer than cotton). . If you would still like to make use of the weakened thread I would suggest using it for basting and other temporary applications. šŸ§µ #thread #sew #sewing #expire #expired #expiredthread #breaktest #weakthread

Is it the whole spool? I know you said it could be multiple things, but could it be the top layer only or all of it?

You donā€™t have to throw it away you can use it to pre stitch fabric instead of pinning the fabric together when sawing

This is new information to me! Thank you! I guess this old thread would be good left on the spool for a cute vintage shadowbox

Ive found ou can sometimes still use these for mending by handing! Less tension keeps it from snapping, if you go over things a bit more it'sšŸ‘Œ
