Replacing the String in Hooded Sweatshirt

RE: Replacing the String in Hooded Sweatshirt By Rebecca (Guest Post) Can't believe no one posted using a wire hanger pulled apart (So its straightish) run through the "tunnel" attached at the end to the wayward string and then simply pulled back through. this also works for sweat pants and other larger projects that the simple safty pin may be tedious and more time consuming Posted on 03/03/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Replacing the String in Hooded Sweatshirt By Kinkalicious (Guest Post) check it out! Use a "PEN" that you've taken apart. with only the tube left (preferably a bic) Slide it in the hole bunching the hood around the hard shaft. gently slide the string through the tube then presto!

Will keep in mind for future reference. Posted on 01/11/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Replacing the String in Hooded Sweatshirt By ibertie (3) Contact Put a safety pin on the end of the string. This will make threading easy because you can feel the pin and push it along.

I use this all the time with my kids' elastic waists, when both buttons come off and I am left with the elastic band.

(Guest Post) Place the largest safety pin on end of string from hoodie that when closed will go thru opening of the hoodie and guide it thru with ease. Learned this one years ago when my children were small and it has never failed me yet.

Posted on 01/09/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Replacing String in Hooded Sweatshirt By MartyD (467) Profile Contact I was just going to suggest the safety pin method.. In addition to this I pull the string through to have the string evenly inserted. Then at the top of the hood make a few stitches so that it won't slip either way. You can still draw it up to tie under the chin but it won't get away again... Posted on 01/09/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Replacing String in Hooded Sweatshirt By paperlady316 (12) Contact Hi! Use a safety pin and thread it through the end of the hoodie string. Close it. Use the pin to push the string around through the tunnel. I use this method lots of times on the strings that come out of my sweat pants. Good luck! Posted on 01/09/2008 | Report Spam or Abuse
