A carrier for suture material comprising a reads through the loosely woven fabric of the Web of flexible material of predetermined width and indeterminate length and a plurality of groups of suture threads coextensive with the length of said web, the suture thread of each of said groups being separate one from another and extended repeatedly through said web from one side to the other at a series of points throughout the length of said web, to hold said threads against lateral detachment from sai web, said threads capable of longitudinal displacement when said web is severed transversely.
4. A carrier for suture material comprising a web of flexible material and a plurality of separated strands of suture material extending back and forth through said web from one side to the other thereof at a plurality of points spaced longitudinally of said web, said suture threads being adapted to be cut into predetermined lengths by transverse severance of said web.
5. In a carrier for suture threads for surgical use, a web of woven fabric of predetermined width and indeterminate length and a plurality of individually separated suture threads extending repeatedly through said web from one side to the other thereof in relative parallelism with References Cited in the file of this patent UNITED STATES PATENTS Number Name Date 180,039 Kips July 18, 1870 653,152 Roeber July 3, 1900 1,610,607 Hirsch Dec. 14, 1926 1,612,553 Van Hook Dec. 29, 1926 2,317,200 Kinney Apr. 20, 1943
