I use crochet thread on all my tied quilts and have no trouble at all.

My aunt loved to tie her quilts with Phentex yarn. After washing the knotted ends made cute little ball. Didn't care for that myself but she said it entertained the grandkids.

I just did a little research and found I have been knotting surgeons knots! And I thought it was my own invention! Silly me!! :)
