ricrac
Wavy sewing ribbon
Ricrac is a flat, zigzag braid used as decorative trim on clothing, curtains, and other fabric items.
The serpentine pattern gives it a playful, homemade quality, associated especially with vintage styles and children's clothing: She edged the apron with red ricrac.
Also spelled rickrack.
