Picking out the pleat thread?

[646guy]

I use nail scissors, my fingers, and a lot of patience!

This was my method....I guess I ran out of patience at one point...

I have my wife do it.

That's my method as well.

Even with nail scissors, it's awfully easy to snag a kilt thread. I highly recommend something blunt (a lot more blunt than a seam ripper). Even a big knitting needle is better than scissors. Obviously you need scissor to cut a thread, but it's better to pull it through the fabric with something blunt.

I only used the scissors to do a few cuts on the thread, I pulled the thread out with my fingers...very slowly.

I use the seam ripper. I use the blunt side to lift the thread and cut it and use my fingers to pull the thread out.

Hey Chris, would that be the sword, or the explosive?

Hey Chris, would that be the sword, or the explosive?

and in either case i hope you are NOT wearing your kilt when you do it...

I think the mine would damage some of the tartan so I'd stick with the sword.
