Uncoil the wire coat hanger into a straight line.

Step 2



Tape the end of the uncoiled coat hanger to one end of your sweatshirt string.

 Make sure the clothes hanger is securely taped to ensure that the string doesn't detach during the re-stringing process.

 When taping, make sure no adhesive is felt over the outside of the apparatus. This will make the re-stringing process easier because the tape won't be sticking to the sweatshirt.
