Crocheted umbilical cord ties?

Has anyone used them instead of the plastic hospital ones?

I would like to have a home birth this time around, and wanted to hear if anyone had had any experience of using a crocheted umbilical cord tie? Did you have a good or bad experience with them?

the midwife will clamp with normal plastic clamps. , tie your crochet tie next to the clamp, cut the cord and then tighten the cord tie next to the stump. they are very pretty.
