Thread: Dritz Elastic Threaders : )

I've always used a large safety pin or one of those metal bodkins that Shira recommends on her site. I thought these looked promising. The bodkin sometimes loses it's grip for me and drops the elastic when i'm partially the way through. These look like they would have a snug hold.

I've got a set of those Dritz threaders and they don't work for me. I guess I like to keep my casings really close to the size of the elastic I'm using and I never have enough room to thread the appropriate sized threader through the casing.

ahhh I can see how that would be a problem. I haven't tried mine yet.

that's my experience too, I never try to use them anymore!
