Smaller thread.
Jul. 2nd, 2007 10:33 pmSo, I made some earrings with size 50 Cordonnet. Working with smaller thread is much easier than I thought it would be.

Sorry for the fuzzy picture. Anyway, I washed them, let them dry, then painted them with some clear nail polish. They keep their forms pretty nicely. Next time I think I'll put some beads on the outer picots and shorten the crochet chain that attaches the heart to the hook.
I got kind of excited about using smaller thread and decided to challenge myself with some sewing thread.
