About this rope
If you find yourself running out of rope just before the end of a tie then this kit is for you. 

An assortment of treated jute rope offcuts — short usable lengths that riggers affectionately call "noodles". Reach for one to finish a harness when your working rope comes up short, or to extend a rope with a lark's head mid-tie. They're equally handy for the jobs that don't warrant a full 7.5m rope: hair-ties, single-column ties, or light bedroom bondage. Lengths vary from bag to bag, but we aim for each bag to contain approximately 15m total length of rope.

As the name implies, they come in a small red cotton drawstring bag (20 x 24 cm) so you can keep them separate from the rest of your set.

Care & storage

Surface fuzz is normal. New jute develops a layer of fine fuzz. Some people singe this off; you can also brush it off with a coir brush, or just allow it to shed naturally with use. It's part of the breaking-in phase every jute rope goes through and not a defect.

Keep it dry. Jute is a natural fibre doesn't love being damp. If you can, we recommend airing your ropes out after use by hanging them. If your ropes do get wet you'll need to hang them under tension.

Re-oil when it dries out. Over time and use, jute loses some of the oils and will start to feel stiff and brittle. Re-treat the ropes with a jute-suitable oil (camellia/tsubaki oil is standard, jojoba oil is also very popular). How often you'll need to treat your ropes depends on how often you use it, whether it's used on skin or clothing and also the climate.

FAQs

How many ropes do I need?

A dangerous question to ask the shop that sells you the rope — so we'll be straight: fewer than you might think if you're just getting started. You can get a single rope if you want to practice the basic knots and frictions, and then add to this gradually as your skills improve.

Once you are ready to move beyond the absolute basics, you'll want between 2 to 4 ropes so that you can practice harnesses and have a bit more fun with tying in general.

A complete rope set would typically be around 12 ropes.

Which length do I actually need?

Most people will want to purchase the 7.5 m length for shibari. We make longer lengths available to for those who prefer to cut ropes to a specific length, or sometimes because Naka-style practitioners light a single long rope in their kit.
