For simple winding, a gradient pigment scaled to make small stripes 
might work.
Or maybe a row of lots of thin cylinders of alternating colors would 
work.  Maybe patterns in the winding could be created by rotating and 
changing the sizes of the cylinders a little bit.  The larger ones would 
look like wire that overlaps other wire.  Macros would help here with 
the placing and transformations of the cylinders.
