Romanian point lace cord sizes

Since posting cords to my shop people have asked what is the differnece between the cord sizes I figured easiest way to explain is a visual.

Not pictured I have made size 50 and 100 but oh my goodness I don't have that patience anymore or that eyesight heaven bless those that do as it is a sad day when good vision starts to go.

(pink and white) Size 30 size I have used for baby bonnets to make it more dainty.

Size 15 not pictured ( because I don't have any made at the moment) I don't use often but do every now and again becuse I own some thread that size


Size 20 ( cream ) and 10 whitish) I use the most for cord ( I usually fill with size 30 thread).

Size 3 ( cream ) and 5 ( ocher) I use for making bracelets and such .  I have used size 3 on a bodice of a child's dress to make it more sturdy.

  1. It isn't like I need any more projects, but working with cotton thread is my favorite (crochet). The Romanian Point lace is beautiful. I just have to find more time to give it a go. I invested in an led magnifying light because of failing eyesight... a very worthwhile investment for those who enjoy the fine needle work.
