I don't think the rope was made by Galadriel herself, it was more like the Lórien folk in general. And it's clear that the rope is "magic" from the point of view of Hobbits, but totally common to the Elves that made it. For all the other races, Elves had magic skills. They call them magic because they don't know how they are achieved. A radio set is magic for an 18th century man, however skillful/wise he is.
