Cloth emitter that wraps around rope like cling film

I'm fairly new to vellum solver. I made a set of ropes that are vellum strings and a helix like vellum cloth to wrap around the rope as a cloth. But, I want help with coding a emitter or animate that wraps the starting edge of the cloth around the rope like cling film wrapping around the rope. And, I wanted the cloth to stick to the rope also, for which I added vellum glue to the rope but doesn't seem to work. Any ideas or directions would help me greatly.

Enable warp on the cloth and then used uv's as the direction of the warp. you can adjust the rest length and it will only shrink in one direction I animated the rest length in the solver using a vellum constraint property. Oh and I didn't use the helix in the sim, I point deformed it using a tube, its a lot simpler. otherwise you will have to set up dynamic constraints in the solver.
