Abstract
Abstract Pairs of shoelaces are packaged in convolute wound relation by forming a folded portion in a pair of shoelaces substantially about the midpoint of the length thereof, connecting the folded portion of the pair of shoelaces to a rotatable member with the opposite halves of the pair of shoelaces trailing therebehind, and rotating the rotatable member to wind the opposite halves of the pair of shoelaces into a series of four convolute windings on the rotatable member. The convolute wound pair of shoelaces is then removed from the rotatable member and flattened, and a wrapper is secured around a medial portion of the flattened convolute wound pair of shoelaces to maintain the same intact and form a package.
