Question Assistance needed modelling tip wanted

Hi guys and Gals

Busy trying to make more property for my OO gauge layout and it has been suggested by a female (Daughter in Law) that I should build her a Thatched cottage to put on the hill (part of the layout over a tunnel area)

Now the question

HOW do you make thatch that looks authentic in 4mm to the foot ??

I have NO idea of what to use except maybe some sort of coloured thread of some description and that's a maybe as it tends to go bristly when you varnish it

I look forward to suggestions
