    I think this answer wins!!! Sounds logical to me!! :thumbup:

    I have got such a kick out of everyone's guesses on this. You ladies are a hoot! Thanks for the good laugh to start my day.

    I have no idea what this is or what it is for, but I love the "wind chime" for your sewing machine. Regardless of what it truly is, that's what I'd use it for!

    I think it used to count rows on crochet.

    I think it's used in making bobbin lace. Not sure how, but saw a demo recently and they used all sorts of items that looks like this.

    I like this answer!
