The older I get the more I realise that like half my wardrobe issues can be solved with ropes and ribbons of various lengths, but most ribbons and lengths of rope I own are single colour and I can't seem to figure out the correct search terms to punch into Etsy for it to show me the kind of beautiful kumihimo or card woven ribbons in the 180-200cm length that I would like to own them at.

"obijime" is good for antique and modern Japanese silk cords! Idk if the length is good or not. The traditional folk costumes in Sweden and Norway still use band-woven bands to tie up their hair, and I think there's also a unique Sámi style of making them, but I'm not quite sure about what the right search terms would be.
