NYLONS > C-LON® BEAD THREAD Size D |
The C-Lon Bead Thread is a nylon monocord thread available in 36 colors. It is the standard weight beading thread for peyote, square stitch, bead weaving on and off loom, bead stitching and embroidery with seed beads and English beading needles and a better alternative to Nymo thread (Nymo was originally created for the shoe industry). Unlike its siblings the C-lon Bead Cord and C-Lon Micro Cord, this thread does not have any twist or plies, it is like a floss. It is UV resistant and vat-dyed, the color does not rub off. The vat-dyeing process involves high heat and pressure which forces the dye completely through the thread resulting in a permanent dye. It comes in two thickness, Size D and Size AA. Size D is suitable for use with Delicas, 11/0s, 10/0s, or larger beads. Size AA is thinner (so not as strong as D), and is best for 15/0s. Only Size D is stocked at this time.
36 colors :: Size D :: Full Collection :: Calico :: Waterfall :: Sunset Collection available
Approximately 80 yards/73 meters/bobbin. Each bobbin is 1 inch (2.5cm) in diameter by 3/8" (1cm). Made in the USA

Personal Note :: I originally ordered this thread by mistake as it is primarily a stringing thread for seed beads and not intended for micro macrame knotting. However when looking for an alternative to silks for double half hitch knotting, I found it behaves like a silk floss, with the advantages of lower cost and better stain resistance. I would recommend its use for Cavandoli style knotting over C-Lon Bead Cord or Nylon #18. In solid double half hitches knotting it works well as the knotting cord only, not as the anchor cord. In the cabochon rings posted here, I used it doubled or tripled and may have done one or two rows of vertical double half hitches. - Try it out!
