"Frequently I use ribbing like this as a overlay over tinsel or other flashy materials. This ribbing seems somewhat cloudy and not as see through as some others, so the underlying material is more obscured than I like. Could be a factor of the small size."
"This vinyl rib makes for some realistic nymphs. I love how easy it is to use."
