I use mainly embroidery floss but I also use craft string, I found that wool doesn't work well in my alphas though. 😄

my favorite string to use is Loops and Threads Craft Cord. I love using this because it makes the knots very secure and is a nice texture to work with. hope this helps!

@Nibble @LilyMitch I feel you- craft thread doesn't fray like embroidery floss does, and doesn't stick together as much. |

Dmc embroidery floss is the best that I’ve used and it has a huge selection of colors (including metallic) and the brand also makes cotton craft thread! I have used crochet thread in the past but I find embroidery floss is going to make a shinier bracelet with fuller knots!

I use any embroidery floss brand that I can find near me but lately I’ve been using embroidery thread from buttinette (for my German people I think it’s just a German online shop)

I use DMC, when I first started I was using another brand from Walmart but then I upgraded. I also started using crochet thread as my base threads for alphas but i've only done 3 bracelets so far with it and it's going pretty well.

What ever is cheapest lol. If I’m being honest I really can’t distinguish the difference between a bracelet made with DMC floss and an off brand once the bracelet is made.

I use DMC usually but if I am getting like the dye or maybe color changing or sparkly I used other small brands that I ether find on Amazon or a special website like azira ( I’m pretty sure that’s how you spell that)

I use embroidery floss, mostly bulk packs from amazon. I have a few DMC skeins but I am not a fan of knotting with it, I feel it fray so easily compared to my other thread. DMC definitely have the most beautiful colours thou, specially their multi colours are unmatched imo.

DMC embroidery floss! I love the huge range of colors, and I only use the smooth ones! I feel like it's the only thread that has not cut or hurt my fingers after I knot for hours and hours

I like embroidery floss from Michaels, I don’t like friendship string from Walmart.

I like to use embroidery floss. I prefer it over craft string because it doesn't have those weird dots in it (you know what I mean).
