Hi Sally,
I think Susan is referring to "Magic Threads." These are loops of
color thread that you put through the starting pairs or other places
of an edging or motif, to sew the ending pairs once you complete the
piece. You can find more information searching the Arachne files.

Hello Arachne and Susan,
Susan said, " Unfortunately, I failed to install lazy loops on the octagon
& the sewings/finishing went badly"
I would like to know about these "lazy loops" - I think I may have invented
some myself on occasion by either using two pins stuck right beside each
other (touching, in fact) or using a big fat pin (well, that one is wishful
thinking - I don't have any big fat pins! but would have used one if I
could have). Is this the right idea, or is there a better way to "install
lazy loops?"
Thank you,
Sally in western Oregon, USA
