It is so neat as a tea bag holder.

The This Old House answers (the wrong ones) the guys give are always so silly!

I agree this little thing has something to do with threading a needle, just not sure how it works and have never seen one before.

How wrong can we be? Nothing to do with thread at all! A tea bag holder; who knew? :)

Not a sewing item. This is a teabag squeezer.

A teabag squeezer! That's clever, but I don't think I'd ever use it.
Hope you get your ruler.

I can't tell what size it is. It could be a thread holder like others have said or if it is bigger it could be a gripper for the plastic rulers.

It is a snazzy tea bag thing. You place it over your cup of brewing tea with the teabag and string resting thru the slot on the top. Then you can use this silicone item to squeeze the teabag out. I have given many for gifts and everyone loves them!
