Abstract: A fastening pin includes a needle having a tip and a base end, a holder having a base-end holding part that holds the base end of the needle, and a hook part provided in the holder and configured for the tip of the needle to be hooked thereto. The needle has a non-straight shape bulging in a direction away from the holder and is elastically pivotable around the based end toward the hook part. The hook part is provided with a groove and a protruding guide part. The groove is open toward the holder and configured for the tip of the needle to engage therein. The protruding guide part is arranged on the opposite side of the holder with respect to the groove.

Abstract: A handicraft roller, used for pressing a piece of cloth to put a sharp crease or fold in the fabric, includes an elongated grip with first and second ends spaced from each other in the longitudinal direction of the grip. A rolling member is attached to the first end of the grip so as to be rotatable about a predetermined axis. The rolling member is made up of a constant diameter portion and two decreasing diameter portions flanking the constant diameter portion. The constant diameter portion has an outer diameter that remains constant over a predetermined length of the axis. Each of the decreasing diameter portions has an outer diameter that decreases with increasing distance from the constant diameter portion along the axis.

Abstract: A beading loom includes two side supports spaced apart in a lateral direction, and a plurality of shafts rotatably connected to the supports. The shafts include first and second thread fixing shafts, and first and second thread supporting shafts. Each of the first and second thread supporting shafts includes first and second thread supporting portions elongated in the lateral direction. In each thread supporting shaft, the first and the second thread supporting portions are provided at different positions in the circumferential direction of the shaft. Each of the first and the second thread supporting portions includes a plurality of grooves arranged at a pitch in the lateral direction. The pitch of the grooves of the first thread supporting portion differs from the pitch of the grooves of the second thread supporting portion.
