Todd, Compare them to the photo that Rene posted. If they are the same, hang on to them for sure. Just send me a photo of them, especially a shot from below. I may do a tying sequence for the belly-weave on Byard's home page, then maybe we'll have a go at a swap. We can probably get 10 variations of the Pott's belly-weave using different colors and materials. This makes a great scud pattern, too. Someone may even want to do a woven hackle collar- probably Debbie D and Mark Romero...
Then after we can do a square-knot weave swap. I can hear Mark now..."Weave me alone!"
