About C-Lon D

This thread is approx 0.125mm in diameter - similar to ordinary sewing cotton - but much, much stronger.
Each bobbin has approx 80 yards of thread (73 metres).
C-LON WILL NOT FRAY OR NEED CONDITIONING. It is stretch resistant and strong.
Size D is nylon but feels more like silk. Use it with size#12 English beading needles (#10 American needles).
This is the standard weight beading thread for peyote, square stitch, brick stitch, beadweaving, loom weaving, and all types of bead work with seed beads.

If you like beading you'll LOVE C-LON!

C-LON is a nylon monocord thread in which the fibers run parallel. This gives it a flattish cross-section. Such threads are bonded to keep the fibers from separating. In the sewing world, a small amount of bonding is used. Too much prevents the thread from running freely off the bobbin when used on a sewing machine. In the beading world, however, too little bonding makes the thread more likely to fray. If you need to use a lot of Thread Heaven or beeswax with your brand of thread, it probably indicates a low level of bonding. If the thread has too much bonding agent, however, the colours may get muddy or the bonding agent can discolour the thread. After extensive testing, C-LON® designers have determined the degree of bonding which seems to work best for bead thread use. While some people continue to use wax or a thread conditioner, many report that C-LON® works perfectly for them as it comes off the bobbin.
C-LON COLOURS DO NOT RUB OR WEAR OFF: C-LON is made by the vat-dyeing process. This process involves high heat and pressure which forces the dye completely through the thread. This process is more expensive but results in a permanent dye which should not rub or wear off.
