You don't need a floor stand to be able to railroad your stitches.
I've managed to railroad while holding the fabric in my hands.

I agree with Dawn. I've often railroaded stitches and I almost
exclusively use a hoop.

Another thing that helps prevent knotting (if you don't already do this)
is to separate your plies after you cut them from the skein, then put
them back together. This eliminates the twist from when they wind the
skein.

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
