FireLine Braided Bead Thread, 0.006-Inch, Crystal Clear

A very useful beading thread that is fine enough to make multiple passes through beads/crystals and does not get cut through easily by sharp edges. Very useful.

Good

Repeat purchase, good quality product for beading

I like Fireline thread easy for beading with

I like beading with this weight

Hobbyists I've talked to have highly recommended this thread - it comes in different strengths 4, 6, 8 lbs etc. I have now tried it & agree that it's good to handle & work with.

I used this to make a seed bead Father Christmas

I normally give five stars for Fireline but this was very thin and keeps breaking

It's funny, but I used Fireline before it was recognized as a beading thread! My husband is an avid fisherman, so I would "borrow" his line from time to time. (And of course now he sometimes "borrows" mine!) Fireline is a very, very strong "thread". It's also very thin for its strength, which is a big plus. especially when using a size 12 needle, and making multiple passes through beads. Fireline also does not stretch, which is another plus -- I don't want to be making jewelry only to have the design warp out of shape after awhile, especially if I have used heavy beads. There is one caveat to this thread -- it's a little stiff, as opposed to having a lot of drape. It's absolutely fantastic when doing beading stitches that take a bit of effort to control tension, like some of the spiral stitches or right angle weave. What it's not great for is fringes -- it does not drape and move well for that application (regular beading thread is better for fringe work). If you want your beadwork to hold together through thick and thin, I highly recommend Firelne. While the price here on Amazon is fairly competitive in the beading market, you can get a better deal if you buy the kind marketed as fishing line -- you just have to buy it in larger spools. Best wishes for your beading! :)

....ist aber der beste Perlenfaden überhaupt. Hoffe, dass man ihn noch lange bekommen kann.

This thread is awesome for bead weaving but it is very expensive

Super très bonne qualité dommage pour le prix élevé

i love it...but a bit to expensive for fishing line, and so little quantity. 125yrds for forget how much i pad but the price went up quite a bit. but good stuff nonetheless. fast shipping too
