I believe Astro Thread was made by Holland.They are out of business now and the closest you can come to it is the Trimar thread by Gudebrod.Basically the same although I believe the Holland thread had more of the metallic showing up.You can acheive the same effect by giving the gudebrod thread a bit of a tighter twist before wrapping.Same colors as the Holland also.Basic red,green,black,white,brown,and blue with the gold or silver metallic(mylar) strand twisted in.
