You’ve gotta start out with super dry milkweed stalks, this time of year is great for finding them. You take the stalks, crush them between your fingers and split them open. Then you peel away the outer skin. You then roll that between your palms to crunch away any hard bits and your left with just the fibers. After that it’s just about spinning it onto itself. The upper strand you twist away from yourself then put it up and over the bottom strand then repeat until you have rope.
