I am not sure if I post in this request, but what bulk string from amazon do you use?

Can I use this? I am asking for thickness, I don't want any thinner but does it matter if it is thicker, I would like to purchase this as I think it is a little more cost effective. Anyone else order these?
I see that there is bulk thread on amazon Can anyone help me and let me know if I can use this, is it much thinner or thicker than what is available at the stores (DCM) https://www.amazon.com/New-brothread-Multi-Purpose-Mercerized-Embroidery/dp/B0869FFWXL/ref=sr_1_6?crid=1IRU0DMETJ3RK&keywords=cotton%2Bembroidery%2Bthread&qid=1644938869&sprefix=cotton%2Bemb%2Caps%2C262&sr=8-6&th=1 ?

@cheek4614, I checked out the link you posted, and this appears to be sewing thread for a sewing machine. I sew quite often and sewing thread is much thinner than embroidery floss. My guess is the thickness of sewing thread would be about the same thickness as 1 of the 6 strands of embroidery floss, maybe thinner. I don't think it would be good for making bracelets. I feel if you searched "bulk embroidery floss", or just "embroidery floss" you'd have better results.

Hope this helps!

Thank you so much, I am glad I asked and just didn't buy. I had no idea what I was looking at.
