History & usage: SPOOL OF THREAD depicts a spool of thread. In messaging and interfaces, it can symbolize sewing tasks, repairs, or crafting and textile projects. It can also stand for careful, steady work on a project or the materials used in design and tailoring workflows. The emoji helps clarify related ideas in informal chats and UI hints about fabrics, crafts, or sewing steps. Across platforms, color and detail vary, so the emoji may look different in each app. Use it thoughtfully to avoid ambiguity in formal content. For accessibility, provide surrounding text that clearly conveys the intended meaning and ensure labels or descriptions describe the item and its context so users relying on assistive tech understand it."}]} {}?

Display and fallback: if you see an empty box (tofu) or a placeholder rectangle, the active font might not include this codepoint. Switching to a font with broader Unicode coverage or using a fallback font usually fixes the issue. On the web, ensure the page’s font stack includes a general‑purpose fallback.
