embroidery hoops
Fabric tension rings
Embroidery hoops are circular frames that hold fabric taut while stitching.
They consist of two nested rings—the fabric stretches over the inner ring, and the outer ring clamps down to secure it: She tightened the embroidery hoop before starting the floral pattern.
Available in various sizes, they're essential tools for hand embroidery, cross-stitch, and similar needlework.
