Have you noticed the steady rise in prices for almost everything you need to make your own flies? As a guy who likes to stack at least a hundred streamers into my fly box for a week's streamer fishing the Tongariro. As this can become quite expensive I am always on the lookout for bargains. Below are links to materials I have tested and can recommend
1. Indicator material https://tangledyarn.ca/product/chenille-yarn/" rel="nofollow - Polyester
