Go to any Army-Navy surplus (or camping, mountain climbing) store and look for parachute cord. It's made of nylon, and has about 7 or 8 small nylon threads placed inside another woven nylon out shell. Cut the cords to the desired lengths and melt the ends shut with a lighter (makes neat little red marks on you) or leave them unmelted (for a lighter stroke with no real marks). Go to the library (or Borders, Barnes & Noble, etc) and look for a book on Marlin Spike Seamanship. It will show you all sorts of ways to make decorative knots, weavings, etc that you can use to make a handle. Hope that helped.
