Condition and Dye Your Own Hemp Rope

By mcvarij

In this Instructable, I will guide you through the process of conditioning raw hemp into soft and beautiful rope.

"Step 1: Tools and Ingredients

1. Hemp rope - I'm using 83 meters of raw 4 mm rope but the process is the same for thicker sizes. I buy Ecolution Romanian hemp rope through greenboatstuff.com. It's sold by weight so if you buy thicker rope you won't get the same length.
2. EMT safety shears
3. Stock pot or pressure cooker - large enough to hold all your rope and cover with water
4. Washer and dryer
5. Mesh laundry bag or old pillow case
6. Dye (optional) - use any brand you like, just make sure it's for natural fibers and that you follow the instructions. I'll be using Rit-Dye.
7. 1 cup salt (for dying)
8. Water
9. Rough towel or piece of burlap
10. Gas burner or alcohol lamp
11. Mineral oil - get the kind sold as a laxative at the drug store. It's much more refined than other kinds at the hardware store [I wonder if something else could be used instead of mineral oil]
12. Masking tape
13. Measuring tape.
14. Whipping twine or strong thread"
