A Grondine says:Hello – The instructions say “hemp cord or the like” however, having never made something like this before or used a size 18 needle, I have no clue whatsoever what size hemp cord (or the like) to buy. I would appreciate any help, along with a few suggested Lima Beads product numbers (for cord.) Thanks!
