a mere ribbon of land.
a thread of smoke climbed upward.
from the air the road was a grey thread.
he lost the thread of his argument.
I couldn't follow his train of thought.
She had her eyebrows threaded.
sometimes, the gout wanders through the entire body.
string pearls on a string.
the child drew glass beads on a string.
the lighted ribbon of traffic.
the path meanders through the vineyards.
the river winds through the hills.
thread a needle.
thread dried cranberries.
thread film.
thread tape.
