Chapter VII · Bondage tape and rope
Soft Cotton Rope, Beginner Length
Soft cotton for simple decorative ties only. Rope work beyond that needs instruction.
Soft cotton rope is the beginner material for simple ties. This book does not teach knots or restraint technique, and it does not present rope as a casual beginner activity: anything beyond a loose, easily undone tie requires qualified instruction.
This placeholder represents a soft, braided cotton rope in a short beginner length. Safety scissors belong beside it.
Who may find it useful
- · Couples who have done the reading and want a soft material for simple ties
- · People who prefer natural fibre against skin
Who may prefer another category
- · Complete beginners, who should start with a quick-release set
- · Anyone who has not sought instruction for anything beyond a loose tie
