Increase Your Efficiency With A Pako Floss Organizer

By Christa Jarvis


For those who love to do handwork projects involving floss, having an accessory that helps to keep it in place can make their lives a whole lot easier. A Pako Floss Organizer is created especially for this purpose. Struggling through tangled messes of disorganized threads is a thing of the past when using such an accessory.

These organizers are sturdily constructed and have 50 short hooks, 25 on each side. The fibers hang down over each side. Each of the hooks line up a symbol key window. This little square or window is used for noting the symbols on a pattern. Below the hooks are foam pads that hold fibers snugly in place without damaging or crimping them in any way.

This accessory can help to prevent a lot of frustration when working on projects with multiple color changes and thread types. There is nothing that can affect the pleasure of a project more than confusion and being unable to find a particular color amongst the mess. Using these organizers for projects can prevent this frustration and allow the person to enjoy what they are doing to the utmost.

The first step in setting up this accessory is to take a code card and label it with the color codes from the pattern. Blank cards are included with this accessory when purchased. Keeping to the order used on the pattern is advisable. Setting up all the little codes in the beginning can take some time but the effort is well worth and actually saves time in the long run.

Once the squares have their labels, the fibers are looped over the hooks and between the foam pads to hold them securely in place. This creates a tension, allowing a single thread to be removed without any knotting or twisting. A single thread is easily removed by using a needle tip.

The sturdy construction of this accessory means that it is durable and will last through many projects. The fact that it is lightweight means that it can easily be taken along in a bag when visiting friends or going on a journey. People who continually work on complex projects with more than 50 colors often own more than one of these accessories and find that this really makes a difference.

When sorting and securing fibers, it is important to make sure that hands are absolutely clean. The foam strips can become soiled over time if not taken care of properly. Washing hands before use means that any oils are not transferred.

It is possible to buy organizers like this from many online stores. When doing so, finding out the policies of the supplier with regard to returns, refunds or guarantees is essential. Reading all the product information and comparing prices before buying a product is also advisable. These products are relatively inexpensive but cost is far outweighed by the benefits offered. Discounts and special offers are often available online too. Reading customer reviews about such products reveal just how valuable they can be to those who enjoy doing more complex projects.
