In a workshop in the quiet, sleepy village of Hawes, set in the Yorkshire hills

In a workshop in the quiet, sleepy village of Hawes, set in the Yorkshire hills, Mr Outhwaite peacefully continues to make rope by hand as he did half a century ago. The clatter and rattle of the machine which promises large profit and increased output has never percolated the mind of this craftsman: Children used to call on him for a pretty skipping rope made in many colours, but today they watch him with equal interest for his work in the service of War making a thicker rope which they hope will hang the man who has taken away their pleasure.
