BigDaddyHub 0 Report post Posted February 26, 2010 Had never thought of that, TF. Have a little hemp rope around from when my daughter and son were necklaces. May have to give it a go. I can see where one could acheive a nice body with segmentation, especially in smaller sizes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can see where one could acheive a nice body with segmentation, especially in smaller sizes. Mhm! And if you rough it up a bit and make it gnarly, it gives the impression of gills. An alternative to gills, though, is black ostrich herl - just wrap in through the segmentations and it looks killer! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
