flytire 0 Report post Posted January 14 Only one way to find out keep unbraiding the middle pieces and tie some flies with the fibers. If it’s cotton probably not Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brightly colored 275 and 110 cord work better. Like these, maybe. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niveker 0 Report post Posted January 15 If the middle two are similar in composition (polypropylene) to macrame cord, you can brush it out and use it like EP fibers or Congo hair: https://youtu.be/IP2-jM5ZwPs. This guy makes it look harder that it really is, IMO. The top and the bottom don't look very promising. The bottom maybe for some kind of translucent ribbing.
