A wonderful trip I've discovered...
Sqeeze the seam gently with ends on thumb going to finger tip. The squeezing makes the stitch "loosen" just a little as it now "bridges" the gap in the fabric caused by squeezing. Makes a tiny space between the thread and the fabric like a little bridge. Point of ripper slides much easier under thread and allows thred to be cut with ripper or fine scissors.

Reason: Trying to write TIP instead of Trip!
