Basically I wanted to get some yarn or crochet thread for some of my bracelets (similar to the ones masha uses) but I don’t know how the sizing or anything works. Does anyone know what sizes of thread are the closest to the size of dmc thread? (If it’s different for different brands/types then please specify all the ones you know because I legit know nothing about this 😂)

For Crochet Thread size 5 is the best size to use, its very combinable in bracelets when mixing with embroidery floss because its pretty much the same size. And I have no issues when doing so, even in Alpha's!

You mentioned DMC, they have their own Crochet Thread which goes by the name of 'DMC Petra', itsk very good quality. Size 5 of that is the same thickness as both their embroidery floss and their perle cotton.

@corrona At Michael’s near me I have found the a yarn weight of 2 is a good size too. It is labeled as fine. It is also a cheaper alternative.
