    Needle threading aid

    Needle threading aid-image.jpg

    I’d already darned two holes, and was about to do another, when I lost the aid i had used earlier. After an extensive search of chair, tables, floor, socks,etc, I remembered my mother might have had one. She did! I broke it at once.

    Well, it’s just a loop of wire, attached to a slew of foil.

    This is a short loop of reclaimed copper wire, through the smallest hole I could drill through a bit of dowel, secured by tape.

    It’s more visible, but I expect I shall have mislaid it by the time the fathom of wool thread’s been used.
