Re:Getting pitch off ropes 8 Months, 1 Week ago  
Over the years I've heard several recommendations from reputable people. In no order...

Climb on the rope, the pitch will wear off.
Pine Sol soap
Any of the citrus cleaners
Veggie oil...peanut butter if you want something that is thicker and can be mooshed into the rope

Wash the rope in the machine or a bucket afterwards.
 
 
 
Strong limbs and single ropes!
