I have approximately 1" Graber plastic mini blinds that are horizontal.
For some reason, if I try to pull the blinds 1/2 way up, they won't
stay. Does anyone know what replacement part I would need to get the
blinds to stay up and where I would buy the part?

I have other blinds that work fine!

Thanks!

If it is like most blinds, there is a little grab wheel at the top of the
cord. It may be out of place, sticking or need to be cleaned.

Edwin has this pegged correctly.

A little brass or plastic gear inside a little box right where the cord
enters the head rail of the blind.

The only thing that you might do other than un-sticking it is to add a
little spray silicone to the area. DO NOT use anything other than silicone.
Other lubricates will discolor and destroy the plastic parts.
