Yes i believe jute and sisal are safer than something that is just labeled 'string'. I think string covers all sorts of types of thin rope but not all are natural and break down if digested. If you live in the UK you can get a roll of jute from Wilkos for about a £1-£2.
The pinecones I used were left over from a petsathome xmas garland. Someone told me that Erin did a video on how to make your pine cones safe.
I have not watched it - but I put a link
