Thank you all for the help! I will definitely look into the cotton rope. Or maybe go to the tack shop near me. I just love the smell of all that leather! Thanks IDCrewDawg for the tip on how to test it, too. Never thought of that!

I wish I could have the marks, it's just not possible. As Master Evan has said in some of his posts, we are both married, but not to each other. I love my husband dearly, but he just wouldn't understand the "kinks" Master Evan has helped me discover. I don't want to risk my marriage, but don't want to give up the joy I feel serving Master Evan, either. So cotton (or some other soft) rope it is. Thanks to you all for the help! I knew I could count on you!

I'll probably update this again when I get to the store and make my choice...
