There are 12 plies, but the linen from Tandy Corp is waxed a lot more than this A waxed linen cord made by Tandy would be my preferred choice.
You're making a handle I'm not sure what kind it will be. There is no doubt that this cording is thin, but it is also extremely
Due to the fact that I place knots between every bead, I do that.
In reality, it has to do with how big the hole is and not how big the bead is. If the hole in the bead is 1mm or larger, the cord is 1mm, so just ensure that the cord is 1mm. 1mm beads tend to have holes at least that size, so it is probably the case that your beads have holes at least that size. But you should always check your beads.

Neither this cord is waxed nor it has a very small amount of wax. There are no shines like waxed cord, but it feels soft and feels like cotton. I can use it for my purposes other than that. These photos are of this "waxed" cord compared to an existing waxed cord that I already have.
First use of spool caused it to snap in half. There is a light wax on this thread, so I would call it lightly waxed. Stringing seed beads and other beads of similar size proved to be challenging. The beginning of the piece was frayed, so I had to keep snipping it until I got an unfrayed end, and then I gently twisted Once the frays were brought back together with a lick, I could remove the wax. As a result, this works great for projects that are not intended for selling. After about a month, I noticed that the wax coating on my wood beads had started to rub off, which then caused poofy bits to appear between them. I have strung a bracelet with similar beads as pictured in the photo.
This cord is intended to be used for macrame jewelry, so I ordered three spools of it. In terms of color, the price is very reasonable, however the savings don't justify the price tag. There is no use for it for jewelry or anything else with many ends that needs to be sealed. The feel is not bad based on the few hours I spent using it. In my opinion, I will probably use it for things like sewing leather or crafting with my kids, however I will not make anything for sale. Glue or finish any ends you don't want to burn in order to seal them you cannot burn them. A very unfortunate situation.
Compared to raw (unwaxed) hemp I have been using for years, this works much better. Although sliding knots don't stay put as well until some of the wax wears off, that is the only complaint I have. (They don't come untied or anything, they just slide around and don't remain polished leather cord, and is just as durable. A pendant I made from this cord over a year ago still looks good as new after wearing it every single day. The color may have faded a bit since then, but aside from that, it hasn't fallen apart yet. Once you have worn it in the shower a few times, the wax wears off, so you could soak it in warm water before using it if you don't want a waxy cord.
The Dreamcatchers I make from this are very beautiful. The product works very well, and I also love the color because it displays a very authentic aesthetic without requiring any You can work with it very easily, and the results are stunning. The first time I've posted a thread is because I'm a beginner. This product is also suitable for various other products, such as mobile building, beaded jewelry, as well as leather work. It is waxed, but there is not so much wax that when you tie it in a knot there is wax residue left behind. I would imagine that adding more wax would be very simple with this cord. I would rather add wax than remove it before I use the product. Other reviewers have mentioned that it breaks, however the order I received is very sturdy, so it appears that all of those problems have been resolved. In comparison to other similar products at similar price points, it is also a very good value. You get much more for your money than with most other similar products.
The material is just what I wanted, just the way I like it, but the spool is awful. You can imagine how much of a mess this is going to be for me when it was broken when I received it! My conclusion is that it's not worth returning, but I hope I don't get caught in a tangle. A spool that just unraveled in the middle does not seem to be of high quality. However, the necklace material is exactly what I was hoping for.
Since I stopped using large charms, I now use mostly small charms, but even those can hurt me after about 25 minutes. How do I fix it? To make a three strand braid of this cord, you wrap it around your bra strap and hang it over your neck and shoulders - In that case, the weight is supported on my bra/shoulders and not on my neck at the back where the pain is most intense. My current cord and their blue shades I have been using for a few years and they are very good. The only time I feel the need to switch out or refresh them is when I become tired of a color or if it has become dingy after wearing it for so long. The fact that they bleed doesn't mean they suffocate This is due to the fact that My shower, work, and sweat all take place in them daily, but after 6 months or so, the oils from my skin can fade the lighter shades. Whether it is used for daily wear and tear and pretty much living in this cord? It's good. You don't have to worry about it fraying or breaking. I like how easy it is to use. Despite its light weight, it's powerful. I enjoy the feeling of it against my It lasts FOREVER too since one roll is long lasting. The product has been a repeat buyer for me several times and I have no complaints about it.
A roll of each color was ordered in multiples of three. Two of the black rolls are nearly impossible to tie in knots because they are so stiff the white rolls have no wax on them at all There's wax in it- A heavy weight. Yes, I think that magenta is the perfect color. It doesn't matter to me what the material is, as a craftsperson I can come up with a use for it at some point. If I put in an order, decide on a product, plan a use, and then don't get what I anticipated, then I can't fully enjoy it. The product I ordered has not lived up to my expectations, so I cannot order it again in good faith. It doesn't matter what sort of wax is on it, if you need woven cotton string (no, it won't melt) and aren't bothered by how much wax is on it, then Cotton cord is of excellent quality.
