I know it will seem intuitively obvious to long-time beaders, but can I really put fishing line through a size 12 beading needle and weave with it?
I need some kind of thread that will stand up to more abuse than Nymo can for amulet bag neck straps. Nymo is OK as long as it doesn't go anywhere near a metallic bead, but there is the tendancy to split it when doing multiple passes (more than, say, 3 times) through 11/0 seeds which weakens it.
I thought I'd bop down to the nearest bait 'n tackle shop and see what I can find, but I don't want to put out the cash unless I know that I can needle the stuff.
Also, is fishing line monofilament, braided, cable-laid or flat-plied? I have a spool of dark green Spider-Wire, and it appears to be braided.
