Rayher waxed cotton cord, 1 mm, 20 m on card

Rayher waxed cord 1 mm – waxed cotton cord for necklaces and bracelets

The waxed cotton cord from Rayher is a fine 1 mm cotton string for stringing beads and making jewellery such as necklaces and bracelets. According to Rayher, the wax coating gives it a modern leather look and makes it easy to thread. The card holds 20 m, enough for several bracelets or necklaces.

The wax coating makes the cord sturdier and pleasant to handle. Knots pull tight easily, and the ends are less likely to fray as you work. Choose your colour from the options; Rayher offers the cord in many colours.

Working with the cord

Cut the cord to the length you need with sharp scissors, allowing a little extra for knots and the fastening. The hole size of your beads must be larger than 1 mm so that the cord passes through easily. For adjustable bracelets, tie a sliding knot; for fixed necklaces, attach end caps or clasps. As the cord is a fine 1 mm, it suits delicate pendants and beaded necklaces well.
