The strings you are thinking of are the D'Addario Slowounds. They have been, unfortunately, discontinued. (It's too bad, because I really liked them!)

Colored ball, yes, but I think that the original poster was asking about the ends of the strings with the fabric on them.

I wasn't sure which he was asking about. I guess it should be specified that D'Addario XL rounds have different colored ball ends, while the Slowounds had different colored silk.
