Where can one find loosely twisted 6-strand embroidery thread?
Most embroidery thread come in a standard twist. The most loosely thread I know of is e ply Persian wool. If you look at the links I have provided, you will find some tips on how to separate the threads. The first thing I would recommend is to cut the thread in the lengths you will be using (18 inches is the recommended length) and then roll the threads in between your fingers to loosen them up.
Is embroidery floss the same as embroidery thread?
No , embroidery thread comes in single strands of various sizes and are sold wrapped around spools similar to sewing thread. Most Embroidery threads are smooth, tight made to be used with machines. Floss is two to six strands loosely twisted , and are sold in hanks when a hank is wrapped in a loose coil then it is called a Skein. (some two strand flosses are sold in spools) the main difference between a strand of thread and a strand of floss is the tightness of the twisting which adds strength. a single strand of thread is harder, firmer to the touch a single floss softer in sewing a single strand of cotton floss will often break where a similar cotton embroidery thread will not.
