Hey Ken,
I've been using a few different materials, but here is a little rundown on one type.
I use a knotting cord that is pretty iridescent.
I also use holographic ribbon.
Both the knotting cord and holographic ribbon were purchased at Michaels.
I combine the two and wrap the hook.
Once bound, I fray the knotting cord with a hook and trim the holographic ribbon to length and desired angle.
Then I apply a pigmented base coat, usually with red nail polish or varnish.
Then I apply a final coat with a clear iridescent nail polish or varnish.
Once dry, I tie everything together.
Hope this helps.
