Material:
-
Parachute Silk: This is not technically true silk, but rather a type of rayon with a similar sheen and softness. It’s a popular and affordable choice for beading and jewelry making.
-
2 Ply: This refers to the number of strands twisted together to form the thread. A 2-ply thread is relatively thin and strong, making it suitable for various beading techniques.
Color:
- White: This is a versatile color that works well with a variety of bead colors and styles.
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 ideal for stringing beads to create necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and anklets. It’s strong enough to hold most lightweight to medium-weight beads.
