3-ply rope
3-ply rope is the perfect cord for beginners. It holds together very well during knotting (as long as you have taped the ends to avoid fraying) whereas single strand string can sometimes untwine slightly requiring you to twist it during the process. When you do fray the ends they get a wavy look unless you brush them out, but the fibers will tend to twist slightly. 3-ply rope gives a more textured than soft look and is very common in plant hangers for instance.
The organic 3-ply rope is harder than the non-organic 4 mm rope because it is twisted tighter. This cord has no stretch to it which can be an advantage in some projects.
