A Stitch In Time Saves Nine Poem by Kassem Oude

A Stitch In Time Saves Nine



It's good if one handles some crafts
He can mend defects cheap at home
He saves money with great results
Uses free time like helpful tome

The needle is a spell from deep time
Handling it mends many cloth defects
The smallest's easiest through denim
But the thread's for its eye not erect

I suggest that you work this way
Hold line's tip by index and thumb
Burn the tip and pull right away
Back, thin and stiff it will become.

tome = large book? the use of spell intrigues me; i don't know what meaning spell has here. does this trick work with ANY kind of thread? i like saving money and i HAVE mended holes in socks and underwear this year! got a match? bri :) thanks for the advice(s) i think you left 17 off the year of submission or writing.
