The "rope" (looks more like thick string IMO) is yellow, the silk is red... At least mine is. I
think its neat as crap! People dont expect it and is a nice transition from a rope segment to a silk
segment... or say u want to use a silk to change the color of a cane (how I use this propt) after
you rope act instead of putting down the rope "ditch" it and bring in this. I say its a steal for
the price too!
