I mean don’t pull the strings too hard maybe try knotting the ends or using a little bit of thread at a time and then add in more when it runs out

You can try not pulling so hard, but I heard that Prism tends to snap no matter what

Probably a thread problem. I use embroidery thread instead of friendship cord. I’ve never had embroidery thread snap on me, but it’s more expensive from what I’ve seen

Prism is a pretty cheap brand so that is maybe one reason but maybe just try not to pull too hard (don't get me wrong I do love prism's thread and I love how affordable it is). Hope this helps in some way! 🙂

Making your knots bigger and pulling at your string gently will help. Even I had a box of cheap thread and it always snapped. When I started making my knots more loose and made them gently, the problem did not occur again. Hope this helps! 🙂

@ladybeeyle, @Macaron567, @svenv, @madeleine, @2006_Mandy!Thank you so much! I am sure this will help me! Sometimes I get frustrated when the string keeps breaking 😤. I will just be sure to loosen up my knots and not pull so hard! Again, thank you for responding to my forum post! 😊 |
