KO - Miyuki Beading Thread

NYLON > K.O. and MIYUKI BEADING THREAD > SIZE D CARDS

K.O. Beading Thread is a super bonded pre-waxed, colorfast monocord thread available in 24 colors. The thread is made of 100% nylon filaments that have been bonded and wax coated so the filaments stay together. As this thread has not been plied, it is more tangle free than thread that have been twisted into 2 or 3 ply cord. It is similar to C-Lon Bead Thread Size AA as to thread diameter.

KO Miyuki Beading Thread

K.O. Beading Thread is recommended for any beading technique that requires multiple passes through beads such as peyote, square stitch, bead weaving on and off loom, and bead embroidery with Delicas and beads size 11 or smaller as long as the bead edges are smooth. It is also a good thread for leather wrap bracelets and beaded kumihimo projects made with fine beads.

Personal Note - I have been experimenting with Peyote Stitch with Miyuki Delicas and Size 11 seed beads. Along the way I tried most beading thread. C-Lon Bead Thread Size D & AA, K.O. & Miyuki Beading Thread, WildFire, FireLine and PowerPro. See Beading Thread Comparison. KO and Miyuki Beading Thread are the same exact thread with different labels and color names. Each brand makes 24 colors with 5 colors unique to each brand that are unique to their brand. I carry mostly KO for the colors available in both brands, but it can change depending on availibility. Regardless of which brand you receive, rest assured, it is the same high quality thread.

Tips for working with thread - The next critical choice is the type of needle used. Sharp pointed needles can pierce the thread when passing through the beads multiple times. I recommend blunt ended needles such as Beads Embroidery Needles or the thinnest Tapestry Needles like Size 28. In addition when passing through the hole after the first pass, make sure your thread from the previous passes are taut. This will minimizes piercing through the previous passes and lower the chanced of breaking the thread.
