I sometimes use strips cut from stolen surgeon gloves. When crocheting, they seem to keep the knots from "un-knotting" (is that the word) when releasing pressure on the weaving material, especially when using slippery materials like floss, thread, lureflash etc.
Floss, thread and fine dubbing also work good. /Nick -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] För Rene Zillmann Skickat: den 3 januari 2008 13:05 Till: [email protected] Ämne: [VFB] Woven flies Hi, when I joined the woven fly part of Rick's 4 swap madness, I already admitted, that I'm a newbie on woven flies. But a swap is always a good way to dig into something new. And I own the fly tier's bible - benchside reference - with lots of information about weaving. So I'm playing around weaving on small and larger hooks... And here is the question: If you want a tapered body, how do you construct the underbody for such a detail? Dubbing? Foam ? chenille? Epoxy?
