Le fil à repriser s’utilise en entrecroisant les fils sur la surface du trou afin de le recouvrir. On utilise pour cela une aiguille à chas plus large que pour la couture et sensiblement plus longue qu'une aiguille à coudre. La reprise peut s’effectuer à la main ou à la machine [...] 3, record 1, French, - fil%20%C3%A0%20repriser

Now that all the sheets are folded, we can start pre-punching the thread holes in the folds of each sheet. These holes need to be spaced at specific intervals, and in the same location on each sheet. We will be using them to hold the sewing thread and thus do the actual binding of the book. 1, record 2, English, - thread%20hole
