Riddle

I have joy in bringing two together, but darning my existence! My life hangs by a thread, filled with ups, downs and resistance!

Choose an answer

A.A knitting needle
B.A loom
C.A stapler
D.A sewing machine
Hint: It's a 3-word phrase with 14 letters, starting with "A".

Answer

A sewing machine

Why this is the answer

A sewing machine joins fabric pieces together, its needle constantly moves up and down ("ups, downs"), and it literally works with thread -- "darning" and "hangs by a thread" are puns on its stitching function.
