THREAD

C-LON

A polymer thread similar to Nymo, but much stronger, and in many more colors. Feels more like silk. Use with size #10 or size #12 English beading needles. There are 80 yards of thread (about 73 meters) per bobbin. We currently carry this in sizes D and AA.

Size D is most widely used.

 

NYMO

Nymo thread is an especially strong thread used for beading.  Nymo was created for the shoe industry to attach the bottom of the shoe to the top of the shoe. The sizing is somewhat peculiar, ranging from the thinnest "OO'' and "O" to  "B", "D", through the thickest "F".  We carry B and  D which are good for necklaces and bracelets.  For bead stringing, you might still double-up the D thread for any piece.

We sell Nymo on small bobbins.

Size D is most widely used.

Beading threads are nylon.   Most are shaped like a typewriter ribbon.   Most are bonded with built in abrasion resistance.     If a twisted thread, then there is no built-in abrasion resistance.

We suggest always waxing your threads.
