Both ends of the sleeve are hemmed with a ½ inch chain stitch using a 100 percent polyester yarn. You state the sleeve can be reused for two to three seasons and the bottom can be tied closed with a twist tie allowing the collection of ripe fruit. The sleeve is imported into the United States in bales.
