Griffin Nylon (now a substance called Polyamid) Bead Cord on cards with needle for beads and pearls.  Cards have about 6 1/2 feet (2 meters) of cord plus a needle.

Simply take it from the card and off you go.  The twisted stainless steel needle at the end of the cord saves threading time.  Doubling the thread is not necessary.  You can knot the cord easily because the thread has the correct twist.  

The most popular sizes are #0, #1 and #2 for use with pearls, and #4 and #6 for use with other beads.
