Default Cotton Clothesline for Coil Bowls?

Grrrrrrr.......can someone tell me where you buy this? I have just been out to
4 stores and cannot find it anywhere. I live in Canada and I've been to
Zellers, Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire and Home Depot. Of course I just ripped all
the fabric into strips, took off threads and ironed them ready to go. I'm just
a little frustrated......wanted to try this today.

Thanks,
Lorraine

odd...walmart usually carries it in the same area of the store where
hangers and such are located. If need be, I can try and track some down
this weekend and get it to you.

They only have the plastic coated type. But, I just went to Home Hardware and
found Braided Cotton Rope for $15.99 Canadian for 100 ft..........how much is
the clothesline?

I bought the blend at Home Depot, and it works just fine. It is very sturdy
& shapes easily. I am going back today to buy more & to buy the thinner
clothesline.

I was there also and saw a blend, but wasn't sure whether to get it or not.
What thickness did you get?

Hi Lorraine,
I bought the 1/4", which worked wonderfully. I went back tonight, and bought
200 yds of it (12.96). I also picked up 3/16", the largest package was
100yds(4.99). And the best deal was the 75 yds of neon cord, which I got in
purple. that only cose 2.99....
Looks like I am set for awhile.
Good luck
Teri

How frustrating!
Can you find any kind of cord or rope? (Nylon, polypropylene?) I used
clothesline because it looked like it would work and 200 feet was
$11.50. Maybe they're calling it sash cord.
