I too had no luck at Walmart, Jo-Ann's fabrics or Michael's craft store.
 The Red Heart crochet nylon at Walmart appeared to be a twisted multi strand akin to the yellow nylon rope that you may see in hardware shops.You know the stuff that frays and comes apart if you do not melt the ends.
 My vision was that I was looking for a woven nylon similar to the beige nylon fishing line or like the old dial cord.
 The picture from the Phorum is not large enough to show what the cord is.

  I was advised to get the sku number and it could be looked up that way.
  
  What is the diameter of the nylon?
                                                            Thanks,
                                                                       Henry
