Who'd have thought that recent weaving projects would involve the quirky combination of these unrelated items:
They were instrumental in finishing a variety of ends:
The jar of grape leaves provided the weight necessary to ply fringe with the battery operated Conair hair "braider." Although called a braider, it actually plies whatever you feed it – hair, yarn, string… What a time saver this would have been when knitting the Bob Blankie, with its hundreds of braided ends. If you like the look of twisted fringe put a Conair hair braider on your wish list. I've seen comparable versions on e-bay (Hong Kong) for as low as $2.
