It is the seed bead size class: about 2 mm across. Miyuki 11/0 rocailles are round and center drilled, so they sit evenly in woven work.

How much bead is in each pack?

Each of the 12 colors comes as a 5 g pack. That is enough for sampling and small pieces, but not for a large project in one color.

Are these good for bead weaving?

Yes. Round rocailles with even size and wide holes are the standard choice for bead weaving and bead embroidery, and they thread more easily than irregular beads.

Do I need special needles and thread?

You need beading needles and thread, which are not in the kit. For 11/0 beads, a size 10 or 12 beading needle and nylon beading thread work well.

Can I use them for embroidery on fabric?

Yes. They are commonly sewn onto fabric for bead embroidery. Their round shape and even size keep lines of beads straight.

Is this kit good for a beginner?

It is a reasonable way to try several colors without buying full tubes. The beads are small, so expect a little practice before your stitches feel steady.

Our take on the Miyuki 11/0 Round Rocailles Seed Beads 12 Colors x 5g Starter Kit

A starter kit of Miyuki 11/0 round rocailles, the Japanese glass seed beads beaders use for bead weaving, embroidery and stringing. The kit holds 12 colors in 5 g packs, so you get a small amount of each color rather than a full tube of one. Miyuki's 11/0 beads are known for even size and a wide hole, which makes them easier to thread and keeps woven work flat. This suits someone trying beadwork or building a color palette before committing to full tubes.
