Description
Easy-wax (not prewaxed) cotton no kink sailtwine for hand stitching. 1 ounce spools.
Here is part of a letter we got from a customer who bought some of our 5-ply cotton sailtwine:
Hey, Chuck :) I did get the cotton sail twine & a fine twine it is, tough, strong & smooth working. I used it for my 18th century Sea bags, ditty bags & sail bags, it was used for the hand laid grommets, the flat sail seam for the sides & rolled stitch for the bottom. I waxed it with the tar wax that I make.
Here's some pictures of the project.. feel free to use them.
