How to thread new drawstring through the waist band of sweat pants?

I have several pairs of sweat pants with the draw string missing. Is there any easy way to thread the new drawstring through the waist?

    Yes, there is a pretty easy way to do this. Take the new drawstring and tie a knot in one end that will not pass through the hole. Then take a safety pin and pin it to the other end of the string. Put the safety pin through one of the waist holes and keep pushing it along until it comes out the other hole. Then take the safety pin off and tie a knot in that end, too.

    Voila!! Mission accomplished. I've done this like a gazillion times and it's the easiest and quickest way to do it!! : p

    Keith, I understand that drugs are bad and no one should smoke anything. Needless to say, if someone said not to do something and everyone didnt do it, the world would be an amazing place, but again, it's not. I'm only commenting here as to let you know that yes Health>Alternative Medicine is not the "What to do when I am high" section, but if you could please direct me to such a section, or anything that is closer to marijuana usage than that of Health>Alternative Medicine, that'd be just peachy. Just to make sure I wasnt just blind, I searched for 10 mins and couldnt find any section dedicated to marijuana usage so why do you feel the need to "answer" my question by telling me basically to piss off? I respect opinions but when it's as something stupid as telling me to ask somewhere else when I cannot ask there, dont even comment.

    tweezer! usually at the end of sweatpants there's some form of stopper like a knot or loop. Wedge the stopper/end between the tweezer and thread it through the waistband. When the tweezer is completely enclosed in the waistband push the tweezer from the outside towards the other goal end.
