Loop Turner

Birch Loop Turner, the magic tool to assist re threading ballet shoe elastic. 

HINT: For rethreading elastic through binding of ballet shoes. If you have one end of elastic visible pin this with safety pin so it is not lost in the re threading process. Find the closest end of the elastic inside casing.  Open a couple of stitches on the inside throat of the ballet shoe. (You may have to do this a couple of times if the elastic is past the heel curve or beyond side seems). Thread the Loop turner into casing, find the elastic & hook the end to pull through gradually through each insertion point until elastic is completely back through to front of shoe opening. secure both ends of elastic. Re-sew the openings made around the throat of the shoe binding. Yeah!

 

  • Also turns fabric tubes right side out
  • Ideal when making narrow straight button loops, frog closures & chinese ball buttons
  • Rethreading elastic or corded openings of pants & costumes
  • The wire turner slides through the bias tubing and the latch hook is used to catch the end of the fabric/cord/elastic & pull it through the tube.
