Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How long is each roll of waxed cord, and is 20 rolls enough for multiple bracelet projects?
A: Each roll contains approximately 22 yards (20 meters) of waxed polyester cord, giving you a total of 440 yards across all 20 rolls. A standard friendship bracelet typically uses 1–3 yards of cord, so this set provides plenty of material for dozens of bracelets, necklaces, and other DIY jewelry projects.
Q: Is the waxed cord suitable for beginners?
A: Absolutely! The 0.8mm waxed cord is one of the most beginner-friendly cord sizes available. The wax coating helps the cord hold its shape while knotting, making it easier to control than bare thread. If the cord feels stiff at first, simply warm it with your hands or a hair dryer for a few seconds before you start.
Q: Can this cord be used for macramé or leather stitching?
A: Yes! This waxed polyester cord is versatile enough for macramé, leather stitching, beading, scrapbooking, quilting, Chinese knotting, wind chime making, and gift wrapping — in addition to standard bracelet and necklace crafting.
Q: How do I prevent the ends of the cord from fraying?
A: Simply hold the cut end of the cord near (not in) a small flame for approximately 2 seconds. The polyester will lightly melt and fuse, creating a clean, sealed tip. This also allows you to butt-join two cord ends together for a neat finish.
