Use a stronger Nymo thread or C-Lon Thread to Warp Your Bead Loom

Makes a Stronger Loom-Beaded Item, and Cuts Down on Thread Splits

When warping a bead loom, one of the best threads to use is Nymo F or C-Lon Beading Thread in the larger size. Nymo "F" is not as easy to find as some other types of bead thread, but you may find it to be the thread of your dreams. C-Lon is easier to find and holds up well, too, it's just a tiny bit thinnr than the heftier Nymo "F". Either way, they are both excelent bead loom warping threads.
