Knotting was a form of handwork especially popular in the 18th century and was used to make a variety of trims used in clothing and as embellishment in needlework. Simple strings of knots or elaborate fringes could all be manufactured using a knotting shuttle. Extant shuttles during this time period typically measure 4 to 6 inches in length.
