Most home improvement stores also have sisel rope, but make sure it hasn't been treated in any way. Cotton rope is good too, but I've had a hard time finding it.

I would not buy sisel rope from a hardware store. i did and started to make a net with it. Then after I had made the net I looked at the wrapper it was in. It was all discolored from were it had touched the rope.

I bought a bunch of rope from here - Knot And Rope Supply Ltd. It is perfect. It had nothing on it and works great. Plus it is really cheap. I bought 200 ft of rope for $25 shipped.

I couldn't find Sisal rope in the craft stores in my area, one store I called said thay have seagrass cord which is supposed to be great for birds. I'm heading out there later does anyone have any thoughts on this one?
