Re: [VFB] Re: A thread thread

[Rene Zillmann]

Critter, splitting the thread is a technic similar to a dubbing loop. Tie as usual and when it comes to dubbing, hackling or whatever you split the thread into 2 strands, place your materials in the gap between the 2 strands, twist it and wrap it to the hook. You need less thread compared to a dubbing loop. Less bulk on the hook. Rene Critter wrote: Can I ask why would one "Split" thread? I'm not understanding the purpose/concept of splitting. -Critter Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: i have used UNI and Gudebrod for that purpose. I prefer Gudebrod, much more easy to split than UNI and ...... al the colors you want.
