sonny,
You might try places that sell hand paper making supplies. There used to be a place here in Indiana that sold everything from ready to use pulp to raw fiber. All kinds of fiber, from flax to hemp to banana, if memory serves.

If it doesn't rap the lintel, it might not be a longbow.

I have what's left of a 4oz spool after backing a bow. You're welcome to it as I won't use it.
