Beadalon Wildfire, 0.006 in, 0.15 mm, Break Strength 10 lb / 4.5 kg, Grey, 125 yd / 114 m

Sturdy, does not stretch, and knots well. It was so perfect for making my hanging suncatchers. It is stiff enough to not require a needle, but pliable enough to make great locking knots.

This thread is exceptionally durable, easy to work with, and goes a long long way as well. Great value for the price, I highly recommend!

I have this in both colors on this listing (black and white, aka "frost"). It is opaque thread, not translucent. I personally do not use it for stringing through beads. Even though it is quite tough, it has a diameter that is just too big for multiple passes through smaller seed beads and, say, 3 mm firepolished glass beads, which are mostly what I have been using lately. (I have been into right angle weave lately and I find I need to go through the same bead several times to get the right degree of tension in my work.) It would definitely work in a single stranded project, however, if you are so inclined, as it can definitely take a fair amount of weight (although I tend to use Accuflex or Softflex wires for single-stranded projects).However, if you like to do loomed beadwork, this is awesome for the warp threads. It has provided a very sturdy base for the bracelets I've made so far (I tried one with Fireline, and that worked too, but I think this has a better drape). When I am putting the needle on the second pass through the beads on the loom (that is, going back to the starting point so I can add a second row), it does not put holes in or fray this Wildfire thread if I accidentally hit it as I go by. So I know my warp threads are going to be secure. It doesn't stretch, and I have definitely put that to the test since I am using a Jewel Loom (which stays bent in a bow shape after removing a metal cross bar -- stretchy threads don't keep the loom bent).This has a bit of stiffness but it does end up draping well, at least in loomed bracelets. (If you want to hide the black or white at the edges of the loomed piece, you can add a little seed bead detailing along the edges.) It knots very well, which is nice, and it cuts easily with a sharp pair of scissors. Because of the stiffness, this is pretty easy to put through a needle without using a threader, although it will not work in the very smallest beading needles.Although I don't think this works for every application, I can definitely find some uses for it, and it is superior for those uses when compared to other products, so I am inclined to give a high rating. If you are really into beadwork, you will have lots and lots of kinds of thread, cord, and wire around, but this is definitely worth having in your collection.

Love this thread for beading strong and just the right thickness

This product is wonderful many colors and the size was great for Beading through all beads. If you are going to be threading through 15/0 once okay but not multiple times try the 0.06mm not this 0.08 which is bigger in diameter. Love it!

I use this for my fringe earrings and it works well I can pass 3 times through size 11 miyuki seed beads. The strength it good as well and it makes tying knots easier than nylon threads. I like the green color but I will be trying clear as well.

I am A crafter who beads and used this to tack down my beads on projects. I love this project every crafter has their own go to products and I've got so much of this.

I love white wildfire. I use a lot of it in my woven beaded jewelry items. This thread is part of my staples.

I use this for doing peyote beading

I love Wildfire beading thread. This one like other Wildfire thread is strong and does not knot or fray. This grey colour blends in perfectly with the grey beads on my current project. I definitely will buy again when I need more.

I've tried other beading threads but always come back to this one because it never tangles, doesn't fray and very easily goes through 11/0 delica beads a few times. It even works great with 15/0 beads.

Works great

So far I am pleased with this thread. So far there is no fraying, I can tug hard and it stays put and doesn't break. I will buy again for more of my beading projects.
