Mystery Object (locked version of Original)

Yes DAG...Correct on both counts :D ..

 

Good, still can't see any cobwebs? :D :D

 

No..nor me :confused: :D

 

You could see something that looked like cobwebs in top right hand corner of original picture. But it's very clean and shiney compared with some of the strange things!
I've got one- but a bit different- I want to know if anyone knows how to use this gadget:


I have had it for many years and I think it's for darning, but can't work out how to use it. It says 'speedweve' on it and when you push the bar at the top all the hooks turn to face the other way. Has anyone ever seen or used one of these?

 

Liz,I have been searching most of the afternoon,but can't find a thing about it...sorry!

 

Now where the heck did you find that Nathan??

 

..... :D

 

Thank you very much Nathan!
Have you actually got one? It looks as though the 'mushroom' came with it, I never had that. It belonged to my mother in law and was in her sewing box when she died about 30years ago!
Another of life's mysteries solved...
:D :D
Thanks for looking Paladin- I'm glad to hear you're OK now

 

Thanks liz i new i could see cobwebs in the oridinal pic, now you know what it is and how to use it will you use it :confused: :eek: :D

 

I will have a try without the mushroom bit, I think I still have an ordinary darning mushroom. There's not a lot of call for darning these days, is there? I used to darn socks but with the advent of nylon mixes It isn't worth it.

 

I know these days you chuck em out and buy new ones :eek: :eek:

 

Sadly we're the throw-away society! I used to quite like darning.
