Hello!
I was wondering if anyone uses yarn for their base strings and what size they use. I want to try using yarn so that I don't waste so much thread and also so the knots can be more square. Please let me know if you have any other tips for making more square knots as well 😊
Thank you ❤️

I haven't used yarn in my bracelets so I might be that much help, but I can say that get yarn that is close to thread in size. SO it might be best to either go to a shop in person so you can see that actual yarn itself or find yarn on eBay or Amazon that has a good picture and description that helps you see the size.
I hope I was able to help
Good Luck.

maybe if the yarn is thinner because if its too thick, it'll look kind of weird. Hope this helps!

i personally like to buy a lot of white thread that is basically the same amount of yarn you would get. it’s the exact same as other thread and it’s pretty cheap for a lot of it. i use it as base strings for all of my alphas. hope this helps!!
