As
Nenneth said, when you loose the aglets of your shoelaces, it becomes very
difficult to
weave them through the eyelets. Here's what I do when that happenes:
I usually use a
lighter to
burn the open, untwisted ends of the laces, and pinch-roll them into
tight little '
sausages' with wet
index finger and
thumb.
Yes, this even works with
cotton laces. They usually contain a small ammount of
synthetics..... and even if not, the
charred cotton gives it quite a good hold so you can get the lace through those holes again.
