Making Rope from Plant Fibers — Reverse-Wrap Cordage
Make strong rope from plant fibers using the reverse-wrap two-ply method. One of the most fundamental survival skills — needed for shelter, traps, tool hafting, and more.

Harvest Fiber Plants
Harvest Fiber Plants
Collect dried stalks of nettle, dogbane, milkweed, or inner bark of linden/cedar. 8-10 stalks per meter of rope. Fall/winter stalks work best — dry and brown.

Reverse-Wrap Technique
Reverse-Wrap Technique
Twist both halves clockwise, then let them wrap counter-clockwise around each other. The opposing twists lock the rope together.

Splice to Extend
Splice to Extend
Before a strand runs out, overlap a new fiber by 5cm. Continue twisting — friction holds the splice. Stagger splices so both strands never join at the same point.

Finish & Test
Finish & Test
Tie an overhand knot at each end. Good cordage holds 20-50kg. For heavier loads, braid 3 finished cords together.
