Cotton Rope for Shibari | Shibari Rope

Cotton is also a relatively common Shibari rope material, more so amongst beginners due to its low price. The pros of choosing cotton are: It’s cheap. A complete rope bondage kit can get really expensive and if you are just beginning and are not entirely sure if you want to pursue Shibari seriously, this is a great alternative that will allow you to explore Shibari without taking an economic hit. It is softer than hemp which means it is more comfortable for the person being tied. It is great for beginners because it takes a lot of speed or pressure to cause rope burn. It takes time to fully master the art of tying and untying and unfortunately, rope burns can happen especially with inexperienced riggers. Using cotton reduces the likelihood of these kinds of accidents. It becomes even softer when you wash it. It is very easy to dye, so you can color it any way you want. This is great if you want to customize your rope kit and infuse it with your personality. It is also very light, which means that you can carry lots of rope around with ease. On the down side: Unlike hemp, it is elastic which means that it stretches under tension. This makes it difficult to control the tightness of the knots and make these knots difficult to untie. It can get a little frustrating and dangerous so make sure you have your shears close by. Cotton does not absorb lubricating oil and when it’s dry, the rope can feel coarse and there is not much you can do about that. It can get dirty and fuzzy easily which makes your ropes look a bit gross.
