Thanks! I've lost many of them and was too much of a pain to put back through, but great idea!

Ok thanks Zelda 👍

[@ZeldaSews]

Good job. I always pin my ends to the other side of my open. Because I hate when that happens😅

I've just noticed you tie the elastic to the bodkin. Why hadn't I thought of doing that befor? 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@Frugalisama]

It’s not actually tied, this bodkin has a slit down the middle which keeps the elastic in situ but you can also tie it, depending on what sort of bodkin you’ve got 👍
