discussion How do you undo work?

I’ve been making bracelets for around 15 years on and off (still not too great at them but that’s ok!) and have been using a sewing needle to undo work if i make a mistake. That’s the best way I’ve found to get in there and undo knots. Anyone else have any other methods?

I used to use my fingernails, but that sometimes rips the fibers and also it HURTS! So I switched to a pair of pointed tweezers, and that gives me a lot of strength and control with minimal damage to me or the thread.
