okay i found it. here is the link and there are different sizes on the page

itle?ie=UTF8&th=1

i love this craft and i usually buy their lacing instead of using the
shoelaces that come with it i have rolls of different colors of their lacing
so just use some of that. i have done it with tan, white, black, and
chocolate brown
