I have an old low stool I want to repair as it will no longer withstand the weight of the grand-children. It has a 50x28cm woven cord seat with a lovely patina, but the joints are all loose and to repair those I need to remove the cord weave and replace it. It needs replacing anyway as it is stretched and weak, and a strand is completely broken in one place. My problem is sourcing the cord, I've tried Goggling, craft shops and ship's chandlers with no luck so far.
The cord is I think a form of sisal 4mm diameter, with a double twist, and it needs about
100m. See photosAny suggestions for 'aging' the new cord welcome!
