I decided to try BLUE base with Yellow silk looking for the ultimate GREEN.
Turned out pretty cool:
Here is the thread used:

Laid down the base of Blue thread with a copper wire included plus tied in the Yellow Silk:

Then I covered with side by side YELLOW SILK and ribbed with copper wire:

Finished up the Chironomid with Peacock and White Ostrich for gills:
