Material:
-
Parachute Silk (Not technically silk): This is a type of rayon with a similar sheen and softness commonly used for beading and jewelry making due to its affordability.
-
2-Ply: This refers to the number of strands twisted together to form the thread. A 2-ply thread is relatively thin and strong, but may not be ideal for very heavy beads.
Color:
- Red: This is a classic and bold color that can make a statement in your jewelry creations. It can represent love, passion, or energy, depending on the context of your design.
Length:
- Approximately 500 meters (546 yards) per spool: This is a very generous length, providing enough thread for many beading projects.
Uses:
- Jewelry Making: This thread is suitable for stringing beads to create necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and anklets. The red color can be a focal point of your design or add a pop of color to other bead colors. It’s best suited for lightweight to medium-weight beads due to the 2-ply construction.
- Other Crafting Applications: You can also use this red thread for other crafting projects like embroidery, tassel making, or wrapping decorative items where a red color and slight sheen are desired.
