TWINE

Twine is a strong, lightweight string made by twisting together two or more strands of fiber, yarn, or thread. Traditionally made from natural materials like hemp, cotton, or jute, twine has been used for thousands of years for binding, tying packages, and various household tasks. The word comes from the Old English twin meaning double or twisted together.
