Twine

Sisal twine

Twine (also called baler twine) is a light string or strong thread made from two or more smaller strands or yarns twisted together.[1] More generally, the term can be applied to a cord. It is often synonymous with string but is usually thicker. Natural fibres used for making twine include cotton, sisal, jute, hemp, henequen, and coir. A variety of synthetic fibres may also be used. Twine is available in colors, plain or waxed. Twine is as useful as duct tape in that it can be used for a wide variety of repairs.[2]
