wool needle-another loc tool




this is a photo of the tool I've found. its a wool needle. It's a plastic thingy with a point and a flexible loop at the end. It costs £1.89 at the sewing shop. I tried hard to get a clear pic but hey, you get the idea.

Yeah nubian, I was too tired to think of a better description. I'm suprised at You. what d'you mean you have never seen it. The ladies at the Hemel sewing shop told me some folk has bought it to do hair. I though it was you!

@alaiyo, it's simple to use. Thread the loc through the bendy loop and pull the other end- (the pointy end) through the new growth and just follow your rotation e.g N,E,S,W, same as the nappylocs tool or yarn needle.
