This is a type of narrow weaving made from cotton, polyester and sewing thread. Woven nylon cord is used in bracelets, necklaces, ties and scarves. It is also used in furniture and carpet making. Narrow woven cord is also called paracord because it was originally used in the suspension ropes of parachutes. This comes in several yarns and colors. Woven nylon cord can be solid or heathery. Solid narrow woven cord is very firm and can be white, black or colored. Heathery narrow woven cord has a repeating pattern on both sides of the fabric.
These are made of two layers of fabric to form the base layer of a bracelet or a necklace. The layers are sewn together to create a flat base for the cords. A core layer with rounded ends forms the middle layer of the cord, weaving the cords close together to form a solid base for the final product. A core end forms the end tips of each strand by weaving an extra strand into the base for a pointed end to form small loops that hold tightly together. The base of narrow woven cord can be plain, plaid, dotted or striped with complementary colors.
This is used in bracelets, and neck rests, as it does not wear off as easily as cotton does when fasten tightly around objects. The flat surface of narrow woven cord allows objects to rest securely on it without rolling over time due to loose threads that wear off easily when pulled too tightly against surfaces like leather.
