Good point, Devon. I wonder if that means tripling would be better. No way
to tell unless one does a sample. There is a cloth stitch area on the edges
that works like a tape, and is only 5 pairs. I wonder if just doing that
cloth stitch part would help define what works better without actually using
all 45 pairs. The idea being if the tape looks good, I have the proper
thickness of thread. lrb
I have never tried this doubling process, but my first thought is that there
might be a significant difference in effect between a three ply thread for
which a cross section would be round, and two round threads sitting next to
each other for which a cross section would be more like a rectangle with a
width the size of twice the diameter of the original thread, and the height
one time the diameter. Interesting question.
