If you want to tie a tiny one (think Caddis) Shoppers Food Warehouse sells a dog toy with the same material but about 1cm. Only in orange.

Cotton fibers are magic under water, hence the HONEY BUG fly of yore, made with cotton chenille. That product is all but extinct, though this fellow used to sell it. http://www.bigmeadowsflyshop.com/Honey_Bug_Page.html

Cotton mops and rugs (the kind with TENTACLES--thanks, Kevin!) are our modern source of colored cotton fibers.
Bigger, fatter, better, right?
