A very tactile tape measure by Cocoknits. Made of PLA - 100% fiber waste called polylactic acid, which is made from fermented plant starch such as corn, beets, or sugar cane. It is 100% biodegradable and contains no plastic (this product can get wet; it is NOT water soluble).
 
Packaged individually in a linen drawstring bag with Cocoknits logo
Metal tab to keep tape from retracting into the body of the tape measure
No locking mechanism keeps them 100% plastic-free and reduces the likelihood of breakage
Dimensions:
casing: 2.5 x 2 x .5" (6.5 x 5 x 1.27 cm)
metal tape: 78" / 2 m long
 
The tape measure does not have a locking mechanism, so hold the metal tab or the tape at the body to keep it extended.
