What is the Green Horseshoe used for. I assume the plastic tubing is used for the same thing.
Yes, to your second question. Either can be used when making tape/braid kind of laces (Russian, Milanese, etc) which involve a lot of pillow turning, working back to or over previously worked areas, etc. You push the "older" pins down as far as you can, but, sometimes, they can still catch on the new threads. To prevent that, you lift the new threds off the pillow by resting them on the "ring thing" or on the Green Horseshoe.
