    An Iron Age sew kit.

    Antler is a lot better for making needles. It has more flexibility and is less prone to breakage. I also heard somewhere, but cannot vouch for it's veracity, that bone is more likely to carry infection into a wound if you stick yourself with one.

    Ending Tablet weavings

    I use tablet woven headbands when I'm working. Debs usually just splits the warp into three, then splits each into three again and plaits them with a knot at the end. Results in three short dangling plaits at each end.
