An ort is a bit of thread left over from a project. That little bit left on
the needle or bobbin or ....
I work in a pre-school (for ages 3-5yrs) and I save my ' orts' in an old
sweet jar to be used by the children for their collage work with lots of
glue........ they get used for hair, clouds etc. I have even got the
ladies from my lace class saving them and I go home each week with a
small bundle of threads in my bag. I quite often think the jar is
getting full but when I push the threads down find it's only half full :))
