ロープと糸の見本


Some of the museum ropes from Holland, Denmark, and Hungry are shown here (left & above).  The unbraided end of a large rope (left center) shows the many yarns that make up one large rope. These Hemp Museum "fenders" are hung over the side of boats and ships to serve as bumpers when docked.  They show the beautiful golden color of natural hemp.   From Holland.
These small ropes and twines of the Hemp Museum are all made of hemp.  The long fibers of hemp, running the length of the stalk, are ideal for rope and twine.  From Holland and China. Sometimes items are collected for the hemp museum I suspect are hemp, but don't know for sure.  This braided fishing line is such an item.  Fishing line and fish nets are possibly one of the oldest uses for the hemp plant by humans.  In hunting and gathering societies, food rules.
