A roll of stretchy nylon mesh/netting. Cut a length the size of your cone/spool, slip it over your cone, pulling out the end of the thread. No need to remove the cover, even when it's on the machine. Will never ravel. I think they're called thread gloves.Most importantly, cheap cheap cheap .

Go to the drugstore and get the bandage (by the roll) that sticks to itself and you can cut it and wrap it around your thread or bobbins (which is what I use it for). It looks like the shelf web that keeps our foot peddles from running away. Only the bandage has a the ability to stick to itself and doesn't make the thread sticky. I wrap it around my spools when I am traveling and put it on my sewing machines as a marker for seam allowances as well.

I love this sport self adhesive/adjustable bandage. All kinds of uses for it. Inexpensive and is a mesh.
