Each bobbin has approx 80 yards of thread (73 metres).
C-LON WILL NOT FRAY OR NEED CONDITIONING
It is stretch resistant and strong.
It is similar to Nymo but much stronger and is in many more colours.
Size D is equvalent to nymo D but feels more like silk. I use it with size#12 English beading needles (#10 American needles).
If you like nymo you'll LOVE C-LON.
C-LON is a nylon monocord thread in which the fibers run parallel. This gives it a flattish cross-section. Such threads are bonded to keep the fibers from separating. In the sewing world, a small amount of bonding is used. Too much prevents the thread from running freely off the bobbin when used on a sewing machine. In the beading world, however, too little bonding makes the thread more likely to fray. If you need to use a lot of Thread Heaven or beeswax with your brand of thread, it probably indicates a low level of bonding. If the thread has too much bonding agent, however, the colors may get muddy or the bonding agent can discolor the thread. After extensive testing, C-LON® designers have determined the degree of bonding which seems to work best for bead thread use. While some people continue to use wax or a thread conditioner, many report that C-LON® works perfectly for them as it comes off the bobbin.
C-LON COLOURS DO NOT RUB OR WEAR OFF: C-LON is made by the vat-dyeing process. This process involves high heat and pressure which forces the dye completely through the thread. This process is more expensive but results in a permanent dye which should not rub or wear off.
