Commentators explain that the blue loops served a crucial, practical purpose: to join two large sections of the Tabernacle's inner curtain into one single, unified covering. These loops, placed on the outermost edge of each section, allowed them to be coupled together, creating a single, complete dwelling place for God among His people.
