Clean, stack, measure (gap width) a clump of moose hair; tie in, wrap to 2/3 mark






Taper end of foam strip; tie in




Pull foam forward; tie down at 2/3 mark




Tie in yarn




Tie in legs; trim yarn






Tie in hackle




Wrap hackle, tie off/trim




Move thread to eye, tie down foam; create abdomen




Create thread dam at eye to lift foam at front






Trim head, trim out hackle underneath, half hitch x, SHHAN
