String and Twine
Whether you're tying up a package or preparing a tasty chicken stock, a
string is a handy tool to have around.
So Many Twines, So Little Time
All twines were not made equally. While twines and strings in the office are generally used to tie up
linen, twine comes in a variety of materials, each suited to their own purposes.
* Easily gripped and able to hold knots securely,
'''jute twine''' is great for wrapping packages. Raw, unfinished jute twine gives a rustic aesthetic to craft projects.
* Also known as binder twine,
'''baler twine''' is a metallic string that is good for a myriad of crafts projects, like displaying collector's items, and can also be used as a clothes line. Baler twine is also known in some circles as "the duct tape of the horse world" for its ability to render quick fixes to objects like fences, door latches and gates. Use your imagination!
