By the provision of a spool cabinet made in accordance with my invention, it will be noted that a simple means is provided for containing a plurality of. spools with thread thereon, and so arranged that the thread from the difierent spools will be kept separate from one another and thus preventing snarling or tangling of the thread, and when any one spool is desired, it may thread from be drawn through the particular slit in the wall from the compartment containing the spool.
