I tried something
new (to me) today... "Knitpicking LarvaLace". Grey transparent and black woven
LarvaLace body... rubber legs/antennaes and tyvek wing shields. Then I showed it
to my girlfriend...
She usually says
that my flies are beautiful, but she didn't today. Her immediate response was
"URRRKKK!!!". Not really what you want to hear, right? But logically, since
I know she hates bugs, it must have meant that I did quite good... as I wanted
it to look somewhat realistic.
This makes me wonder
though. Is this the first good imitation I've tied... since she thinks
all my other "bugs" are beautiful?
Still, this shows
clearly that ANY _expression_ can be a compliment...
