Elk Snout- Needs Help

Today I started the "loop" section of blackwork with the Elk Snout from Carrie's Threads that was recommended for Blackstone Fantasy Garden and it just disappears into the fabric. When I did the floss toss after getting the threads from my LNS they all worked well but I guess the Elk Snout worked as long as it was a large bunch but with the single thread it is just blending into the tone of the fabric.


I'm looking for ideas of what to either a) switch the Elk Snout with or b) what to blend with it to make it stand out more...
