Melissa of The Wool and The Floss demonstrates using laying tools on the shop Instagram page.
This is the wooden laying tool that Melissa is using. They come in various colors and of course you can get other shapes if you want something smaller, fatter, thinner, etc. Most shops carry wooden laying tools.
This is the metal laying tool from Island House that Melissa used.
I have small hands so I really like either a tekobari...
...or the Best Laying Tool (sometimes called the BLT). As always, shop around. Laying tools come in all sizes, shapes, materials and price points. Many folks like to use a chopstick or even one of those really large metal needles for plastic canvas or even a knitting needle. You just need something that won't snag your threads that feels good in your hand.
