Other things used with continentals are: knitted/crocheted strips with holes to poke the bobbin bottoms through ribbon wrapped around one bobbin, then twisted between each additional bobbin and tied "tongue depressers" with elastic stretched from one end to the other over the bobbins "snap tape" (used for baby clothes) where bobbins slide between snaps wood "U" with pin in the bottom, to scoop up bobbins at their "waists" and pin upright wood "U" with pinholes on the ends, to scoop up bobbins and store horizontally, pinned in place Robin P.
