Cose Waxed Cotton Thread, 1mm wide and light brown, sold by the meter, is a wax-coated cotton thread that is resistant and somewhat stiff, widely used in jewelry making, macrame, and leatherwork as a substitute for fine leather. The wax coating provides greater durability and resistance to moisture than conventional cotton thread, and also makes knotting bracelets and necklaces easier. The light brown tone gives it a natural, leather-like appearance, suitable for more rustic-style bracelets and necklaces. Because it is sold by the meter, it allows you to cut exactly the length needed for each jewelry or decorative sewing project.
