This variegated hand dyed rayon ribbon is perfect for kumihimo. It has a knitted tube structure. It makes a 3mm in diameter 8 strand round braid. It can be braided as is or with beads. Beads can be added directly onto the ribbon as it collapses onto itself making it possible to insert beads right onto it with a tapestry needle Size 24. The beads need to have soft edges such as high quality Japanese glass beads. The actual rayon fiber needs to be handled with care as it can be damaged or snagged when manipulated. Once braided, it is quite strong.
The color change repeats every 52 inches. Laying the ribbon side by side (so the color in the braid shifts along the way at the same time) creates a more interesting effect than random color changes. Mini skeins include 18 repetitions. With 1 mini skein, you can make 4-5 bracelets, or 2 necklaces and 1 bracelet, or 1 extra long necklace and 1 bracelet.

Hand dyed in the USA - Hand wash separately in cold water or dry clean - Some dye may release in the first wash. | Most have a tight knit. Some have a looser knit. Regadless of the knit types, they braid similarly.
Personal Note - I fell in love with this ribbon at first sight. It is soft against the skin, yet strong with a beautiful sheen. The colors shift beautifully. It has an amazing array of colors and makes beautiful braids. More > Bead Cluster Kumihimo Kits

Just like a Calico cat without the white... Soft russet, followed by a soft grey darkening towards black then becoming a deeper rust. The color variation then reverses back to the soft russet mirroring the previous progression.
