I’m wondering which is better. I have always used craft cord but I’m wondering if embroidery floss has a cleaner look.

I use both but I usually prefer embroidery floss. The main reason for this is because I pull my knots so tight that craft cord cuts into my fingers more than embroidery floss. But I like how both look! @courtk02

I also prefer embroidery floss. I think the knots tend to look much better (my opinion). However, I do like that craft thread isn't prone to fraying.

I use embroidery floss most of the time. I have a lot of issues with strings breaking while using craft cord. I also just like the shiny look that a lot of embroidery threads have.

I mostly use embroidery floss, but I love using craft cord for alphas or mock-ups of patterns I want to give someone because its cheaper. By mockups, I mean doing the pattern once then doing the real version with the real colors once I am done and can see how it all comes together.

I prefer Embroidery Floss because it's much more efficient and gives the pattern a cleaner look

I use embroidery thread because it looks nicer than craft cord in my opinion (you're welcome to disagree). I also make my Knots super tight and craft cord snaps if you pull it really tight slot. Hope this helps!🦁🦁🦁

I like embroidery floss better but I have used both. My strings have snapped off multiple times while using craft cord so I’d recommend floss

Depends on the bracelets. I’m pretty hard on the ones I wear daily and the craft cord had held up better. I have some craft cord bracelets that I’ve had for 4 years and are still in wearable condition. Embroidery does give a cleaner look and has a much smoother texture. My only problem with embroidery floss is that I’ve noticed it didn’t hold up as well last summer when I was wearing bracelets in the ocean and pool. It stretched over time almost as much as the super old craft cord bracelet I mentioned before. It all depends what your planning to do with the bracelet

I use embroidery floss, mainly because I like to embroider as well so dual purpose 😄

I like to use embroidery floss, the knots look cleaner to me and there are so many more color options.

I use embroidery floss because the overall look of the bracelets seem to be cleaner especially when making alpha patterns
