I'm having some problems with my (admittedly second hand) wire heddles. As well as being tedious getting them all the right way round, it is quite tricky as they are a mix of ever so slightly different sized eyes . . . and then there's the bent ones, and the occasional one that's somehow gotten flat (lost it's twist altogether). The flattened ones are proving impossible to retwist, and the bent ones keep sort of jumping out of line, and generally driving me crazy! Tbh, even the ones that seem decently straight and with the right amount of twist get in a tangle. I can certainly understand how the bent ones got that way!!
I thought wire heddles were supposed to be an advance on string heddles. Are they really? or not? How does everyone else get on with them?
