I’ve been thinking of buying blueprint strings but I hear that there short so I’m just wondering around about how long are the strings in inches and if there pre tied?

They are pre-tied, and though I haven’t measured them myself, one website pegs them at about 109 cm in length.

They are a few inches shorter than if you carefully tied kitty string to be as long as possible. IMO, I think they are the perfect length anyway, as longer string would be a little sloppy, but I do occasionally run into tricks where a bit more length is appreciated.

Basically, perfect for every day, fun string

might need a little length for those intricate competition tricks
