A short dictionary entry from Knight's New Mechanical Dictionary describing the rag looper, a hand device used to join strips of rag for rag carpet without sewing. The rags are impaled on a perforated knife, an end is pulled through the hole to form a knot, and the knife's prongs let the knotted strip slip off. A line drawing (Fig. 2083) shows the tool on its frame.
