Lustrous, inexpensive thick rayon floss in solds and color variations.
The picture does not do this floss justice: it's thick, soft, and lustrous, and affordable.
Solid colors, or choose hand overdyed skeins with hand dipped colors that blend into each other.
About the same size as a #5 perle cotton, you can cut and mount right onto your Hamanaka or other disk or plate
and braid away.

Each skein is 10.5 yards, the dye repeat is about a yard, a good length for braiding a necklace.
In other words, one skein will give you around 10 one yard strands, so an eight strand braid will use one skein.
For 16 strand braids, or if using doubled strands, you'll need two skeins.
