I think these are the shuttles for a weaving loom.  You attach the thread/yarn and weave it back and forth to make cloth rugs and shawls etc.

Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

Hello, if you answered correctly dunk.

A couple of weeks ago I started researching about the different types of looms and I raised the challenge of setting up a loom, while searching for information I found online that had only plans for mounted or no shuttle looms, so took the inkscape and I started to design the target of the Egyptian loom (from previous post) and shuttles this post using the measurements and photos I found online.

I believe that one day will be useful to someone.

Thank you all, greetings.
