I was wondering if there was a way I could find out what string PEQUENO50 uses for his bracelets. He does not speak English and I have messaged him and asked him except he pointed me to his facebook page.

It's probably just big spools of embroidery string

You can buy spools of embroidery string. Just look up DMC cones. Make sure its 6 strand and if you can find the size, its 25. I think pequeno50 might use some type of macrame string. I was looking at his videos and it says something about "waxed" string and it does kind of look like floss for your teeth.

It looks like it is either Waxed Cotton Cord, Polyester or Chinese Knotting Cord. I think it is NOT cotton since I see a lighter in some of his photos which leads me to believe it is a synthetic, burnable string. I suggest looking up cords on Amazon or Etsy. I get mine from KnottingCord.etsy[DOT]com

Ahhh I know his bracelets are amazing! I love the thread he uses and I've tried to find it too.. But I don't really want to spend a lot for it, I mean it gets really expensive 🙁

I found some on Amazon that I haven't bought yet, but it is a good price and it is called s-Lon cord. A lady on YouTube uses it to make macrame and think that might be what he uses. If any of you have any more suggestions...

I think nylon thread is a good type of string to use.. It has the same thickness and from what I've see, it's similar to the cords you guys are talking about. Tell me if I'm wrong! And also more string type suggestions please

I have found that Artiste string from Hobby Lobby (It is only$ 2.00 last time I bought for a spool) so. I have not looked for any nylon cord which would be similar to a very thin para cord would it not? Without the white insides of course.
