How to Tie a Continuous Loop Drawstring
A drawstring is a conventional way to tie gym shorts or sweatpants. It provides for easy movement, which is essential in exercise. There are two styles of drawstring. In one style, a string has its ends unjoined. Tying a drawstring like this is simple -- just tie a bow. The other kind of drawstring is a continuous loop, with no ends to use in tying a knot. To tie this kind of drawstring is more difficult, but the procedure is straightforward. Does this Spark an idea?
