This nylon braiding cord comes in wonderful, sunfast, colorfast, no fade colors. Each spool is about 86 yards and it does not stretch. The string has a little sizing to it so that when it braids you can see the rise and fall of the braid beautifully.
This is an extra-heavy #18 twisted multi-filament thread. It is approximately .5mm in width. The breaking strength is approx 34 lbs. It fits easily one time through the holes in Miyuki 11/0 seed beads, and the doubled thread on a split-eye needle passes easily through Miyuki 8/0s.
Many different widths can be achieved by varying the number of strands per bobbin. An 8 bobbin round braid made with a single strand per bobbin is 2.5mm. An 8 bobbin braid made with 3 strands per bobbin is about 6mm.
Because there are so many colors we have divided them up into Warm, Cool and Neutral.
This string is perfect for mini-macrame and all other types of knotting.
