- (continued from previous page)crook and twisted well. One man twists the rope while the other pulls out and adds the hay. The man who is pulling out the hay gives it a few twists in his hand according as he adds it to the rope. The man who is holding the twister keeps moving backwards and twisting until the rope is long enough to tie up a cock of hay.There is an other way in which a hay-rope can be made without a twister and then only one man is needed. He pulls out the hay and twists it with his hands. According as he twists it he rolls it round his thumb and he continues twisting and rolling until the rope is long enough.
