What is the best alternative to a rope? I am doing partial. Scarves and belts are too short for any of my doors and bed sheets and blanket seem hard to tie.

I am going to use the belts from night gowns. They are soft so my neck won't be painful in the short time before I pass out. I had to buy a couple more (at second hand store) night gowns to get enough length. I am doing a partial also.

I am planning to use a necktie, and another one to secure it in case the tie breaks or something.

I'm thinking necktie as well, do you mean you're going to tie one to the other to lengthen it, or loop two around your neck? Don't quite understand, sorry

Dollar Tree (US) has nice dog leashes. Fairly long and should be strong enough.

I was thinking more like making a ligature with one tie, then attach another tie on the bar and make a hard knot on the ligature with it (near the slipknot). I don't even know if it would be useful at all, maybe it's just a stupid idea lol.

I'm usinga belt from a doorknob (old house so very old hardwood door), scarves are soft and stretchy so don't use them if you can avoid it if you can. Blankets being hard to try aren't really an issue tbh. What are you planning to hang from so we may know the height?

A door

If you're hanging it from the otherside of the door, use a bedsheet, there's a chance a thicker rope may stop the door or it may slip off, I wouldn't rely on two items tied together as the tying knot may slip. Otherwise I'd use some climbers rope from what I've read.

Ok. Any tips or tying the bedsheet? I have practiced and found it a bit difficult
