What are those cotton string bracelets everyone is wearing?
Till the wheels run

They are like big, thick bracelets. You weave them and they then shrink in water and are bound to your arm. Most are tan colored and people wear them as anklets and bracelets. They are also more popular in the East Coast.
What are they called, if they have a name?
Plus, exactly what kind of cotton string are they made from?


They are typically called sailor knot bracelets (or nantucket bracelets) and they are really popular during the summer.

How do you transfer water into an empty cup using only a cotton string?
Orpheus by Dame Barbara Hepworth.

it's a chemistry experiment. I have one cup half full of water and one empty. That and a cotton piece of string is all the materials I have. How do i transfer them?


not sure but put the string one end in one of the cups the other end in the other cup the string should soak up the water and it should drip into the other cup sorry if this doesnt work its a guess

Do you have to use cotton string when you make rock candy?
Orpheus by Dame Barbara Hepworth.

I'm making this rock candy for a Chemistry project... & the directions say to use cotton string. Can I use something else b/c I don't wanna spend money to buy cotton string...


I think you would be fine with any natural twine or wood. The crystals might have trouble forming on a slick plastic.

What's it called when you have cotton string woven around a clump of hair?
DV888 Yoyo

They used to be popular mid 90's and they were done on beaches, they start off by getting a clump of hair and tying the cotton at the top and then they just go around the hair and sometime add beads! What is the name of this?


hair wraps?

why do i need to use a cotton string for rock candy?
Maluhia- Handmade Cotton Macramé Belt

all the rock candy recipes i can find say use a piece of string....i don't have any string......can i use something like a straw, or a stick maybe?


you could use a bamboo skewer like for kabobs or toothpicks or anything else you wanted. The thing is to provide something for the sugar to crystalyze on.

I have purchased rock candy on sticks similar to the kabob skewers. Have to be very careful eating it tho so you don't get splinters in your tongue. (giggle giggle and a huge grin!)

  • Two hats and a ball of string « You do too much

    One of my biggest problems in life is my inability to say “no” – it’s an affliction that seems to plague the entire Arney family. Sometimes it leads to new an interesting experiences. And sometimes it leads to a lot of swearing. This is one of those times.

    I was approached by Kathrin, the extremely lovely and gorgeous singer from Belleruche, to knit a hat. We met for posh coffee and she pulled a beige cabled beanie and a couple of balls of Rowan Cotton Glace out of her handbag. I sat there with a pen and paper, counting stitches and sketching cables.  Then I went away and created this:

    With 1 strand of Rowan Cotton Glace, cast on 60 sts with 5mm needle (small circular or dpns), join in the round and knit 15 rows.
