Which wire for Brazilian bracelets? You can make this bracelet with different kinds of wire. Here, we've used DMC embroidery thread for a more classic look. But if you prefer, you can use waxed linen thread, Linhasita 0.5 mm. It's stiffer and has a slightly waxed coating that allows the knots to hold in place on their own. These yarns are synthetic, unlike DMC yarn, and can be melted for finishing rather than glued.
