I am looking for a whole sale source of those spring loaded toggle
thingamywhatsits. The ones that go on elastic usualy on sweatshirts, hood
casings or sometimes trouser bottoms, so that you can gather the elastic in
a casing and make it stay put by releasing the spring catch.. Big problem is
I don't know what the "official" name for them is so searching is a bit of a
pain. French or English name apreciated if any of you know it.
I am using them to gather the top of the water bottle carrier/covers in
around the bottle neck and only have a couple left from those I cut of items
of clothing that break down or get to small. I nearly have the perfect
prototype so all help would be gratefully recieved.
Thank You
Claire in Montréal, France.
