Vespiary

Hang a ball of twine and pull it from below

A hanging dispenser for butcher’s or garden twine, after a hornet nest, whose layered paper envelope opens only underneath. The ball sits inside, the end feeds out of the single hole in the base, and the ring on the screw cap hangs it from a hook, so the string is always to hand and never rolls away.
