hand-tied
Secured by fingers
Hand-tied describes something bound or fastened by hand rather than machine.
The term appears most often with bouquets—a hand-tied bouquet is arranged and secured by a florist rather than placed in foam or a holder.
Hand-tied flies are fishing lures crafted individually.
The word suggests artisanal care: hand-tied wigs, hand-tied rugs.
