Hends Nylon Blend uses trilobed synthetic fibers: their flat sides create a glossy surface. A small proportion of iridescent fibers rounds out the blend, adding highlights to the main color.
The fibers measure 8 cm and have a relatively coarse texture, making them ideal for tying streamers. Hends notes that they can be marked with an alcohol-based marker to depict fish patterns. The blend thus allows you to outline the silhouette with the fibers and then refine the design through coloring.
