John,

I meant to say "some additional uses" to cover myself.

For 76, google images with terms=20
plastic handle loop hair threader
They certainly can be used to thread beads with rope too.

For 75, take a look at
https://www.pinterest.com/pin/400398223097353820/
There are a couple of close siblings to the one I showed.

These resembles tools I have seen for "threading needles" of
some sort. Begin by pushing the end of the wire loop through the eye, ...

Answer seems believable. But where I grew up, we had to put those pie
