I keep a tiny lace crochet hook for pulling threads to the backside of fabric. You could just thread a needle with thread, come up from the back, loop over the errant thread and go back down through the same needle hole. The loop will catch the thread and grasping both ends of the needle threads, you can pull the loop to the underside.

jokir44, thanks for the memory. I had forgotten about watching my Mom repairing her nylons back in the day. Can't wait to tell my granddaughter and her friends this story about my youth. I can hear them laughing now.
