The woolen squares of my brown scapular are in good shape but the strings are breaking to the point where I can’t resew them (I’ve repaired it once already). It’s probably a matter of days until it breaks again. Can I just cut the strings off and sew on new strings? Can I throw away the old strings are are they to be treated respectfully? I found this and it is making me think I have to replace the whole thing if any part becomes worn:
“As soon as possible, one must replace a Scapular where the string or cord has been cut or torn away and re-tied with a whole Scapular.”
