Other clever uses of the tiny hole include:
Temporary fabric marker: Tie a piece of contrasting thread through it and clip it to your project for quick reference
Bead organizer: Thread beads onto a string and secure the end with a safety pin to prevent slipping
Craft storage hack: Clip multiple pins together by linking their small holes — keeps them tidy and tangle-free
