I can't quite picture this.  What is it?

I like line drying, but sometimes the wind is too much, here, and I have to avoid clothes falling amongst the chickens!  Still feels great, though.

Tie a piece of ribbon or rope into an opera-length necklace, and put the clothespins on the lower half of it. Wear on your neck. Hands-free, moves with you, no bending down to take the pins from a container. Makes collecting clothespins easy, too, when it's time to take the laundry off. When not in use, hang on a hook somewhere, or throw in the laundry basket.

That's a very cool idea! Going to make one myself for next season. Indoors, we don't use pins.
