Extra Spools

Forked Thread Specialization
Prerequisites: Any Thread Weaving Specialization, Thread Maiden 4th level

Adjustment Feats
Cover Weak Points
Prerequisites: Adjustment, Thread Maiden 3rd level
You adjust your armor and body, hiding their weakpoints where enemies wouldn’t think to look. Armor improved by Adjustment has a 25% chance to negate a critical hit or sneak attack scored against the thread maiden when she wears it (as light fortification).
Displaced Weak Points
Prerequisites: Adjustment, Cover Weakpoints, Thread Maiden 11th level
You adjust your armor and body, hiding their weakpoints where enemies wouldn’t even think to look. The chance to negate a critical hit or sneak attack from Cover Weakpoints improves to 50% (as fortification).
Unweave Weak Points
Immunity to crit/sneak tends to be extremely rare compared to low amounts of fortification. So this is only exclusive to very high levels.
Prerequisites: Adjustment, Displaced Weak Points, Thread Maiden 18th level
You adjust your armor and body, unweaving the very concept of weakpoints itself from it. You are immune to critical hits and sneak attacks while wearing armor improved by Adjustment.
Fortified Weaving

Armor modified by the Adjustment class feature grants DR 2/—. You can take this feat a second time at 13th level or higher. When you do, its bonus increases to DR 5/—.
Resistant Weaving

Armor modified by the Adjustment class feature grants resistance to an energy type of your choice equal to half your level (max 10). You can take this feat again, but you must select a different energy type.
Soul Weave

When using armor modified by Adjustment, ethereal/incorporeal attacks (including attacks from a brilliant energy weapon) resolve against your normal AC.

Mastered Snip
Prerequisites: Cut Strings & Snip class feature, Thread Maiden 19th level
Select a Snip modified by Snip Focus. It no longer consumes spells slots used for it.
Red String Feats
I want to bump the vague ability to find anything up to a high level. I feel this ability is so open-ended and sequence-breaking, like Wish, but one step removed. It’s also easier for GMs to ban if locked behind feats.
Red String of the Unknown
Prerequisites: Red String, Spellcraft 9 ranks
When you use Red String with a gem worth 500 gp or more as an additional material component, its target creature no longer gains a bonus to Will saves for being unknown to her.
Flawless Finder
Prerequisites: Red String, Spellcraft 13 ranks
You can use Red String with a 1,500+ gp diamond as an additional material component to locate a creature without allowing a saving throw.
Fate Finder
Prerequisites: Red String, Spellcraft 16 ranks
You can use Red String with a 4,500+ gp diamond as an additional material component to locate esoteric, ill-defined, or unknown things, such as using it to find “my true love” or “the greatest treasure in the world”.
As these are literally the strings of fate, a GM has some discretion in his interpretation of it and, if particularly vague or malleable, may change over time (if looking for the richest man in the world, if someone else becomes more wealthy than her previous target the course of the thread may suddenly change). A thread maiden should be very specific as to who or what they are looking for, as it may be interpreted literally, though a GM should not intentionally go out of his way to misinterpret it. If the target changes, the new target also receives a new saving throw.
