I have trouble finding wire hangers now-a-days. I put 2 of them together and use rug yarn(cheap)and wrap around the hangers....I would have to explain how. It is similar to the crocheted hangers but you don't have to know how to crochet. The hangers are wonderful for blouses/shirts so that they don't slip off at the shoulders and they don't leave those "bumps" at the shoulders either. My children used to make these also when they were younger....easy and great to have around.
