Where do you get your paracord?

I'm in Canada and I have found it to be very very difficult to source a lot of the beautiful colors that pop up on Instagram and tiktok while scrolling along.

My main source is Stapletons/Canada Paracord. While they have a lot of colors, they don't have any of those trending pastels, neutrals, and in between shades and variations that places like Paracord.eu and Paracord planet have.

I don't know how much I feel like getting dinged with a load of duties from either of those places by attempting to order from them. Plus the cost is so much higher per foot as well.

Has anyone found any other Canadian sources that carry more trendy shades and colors/patterns? Where do you get your paracord from? Sidenote, I mainly make horse tack and dog collars, so yes, cute popular colors are important to me! TIA

Any clue what this method is called?

Recently picked up this hobby and found a love for it. I quickly was brought back to my friendship bracelet making days in middle school! However there's one weave I've been searching for a step by step on ever since I saw it, and I cannot even find what it's called! I found one single video with zero verbal instructions and I believe the second photo that I stumbled upon online is the same technique. Does anyone know what this is called, and where I can learn more?

I desperately want to use it for something!

I haaate wasting cord, and I have been fiddling around with my least favorite colors to try and figure it out with no success. I am trying to create a diamond-like pattern.

Thank you!!
