roman blind rethreading?

hi, DS3's readymade roman blind which was put up in June, now has one of the three threads detached.

I noticed this morning as I was putting up his blind that it was very squint - looked at the back, and the thread on the left is no longer in the eyelet thingys. I didn't put it up (my brother did, but he lives a very long way away) so can anyone tell me if it would be simple to just take the whole blind down, and then sort out the thread?

I looked on the dunelm mill website (as that is where blind is from) but the instructions for readymade ones don't seem to include info on how to thread them. if thread has snapped, is it still repairable?

it's just made me really cry today, as my husband would have just fixed it, or we'd have done it together, but he passed away in June and so I have to try and sort it myself.

Yes, it's easy.
Buy some new thread, and string it through.
Ours are held onto the batton by velcro. Took about 10 mins to do. Might be slightly longer if they are more securely fixed.
Have faith in yourself - and do it now before they all snap!
