Hi Sue Are you right handed?
In the same way that some lacemakers don’t get on with Z twisted thread for BL, a lot of right handed stitchers find that they have problems with Z twist threads because of the way they handle the sewing needle causing the thread to over twist and thus curl up and form knots. You could try waxing the thread or you could try looking for a suitable S twist thread - such as Brok 80/2 or Fil au Chinois 60/2 - but only if the colour is a good match.
