hi james


I can send you a metre or two of red wool - someone gifted a large ball to me, and it's grand for solider palmers (one of my essential, always tied-on wet flees for wild trouts) and for the tags of flees. You can also untwist it and use it as a fuzzy body material.


PM me your address and i'll post some along; don't think i'd use dyed teal, but tie me an SP and send that instead!


cheers

thanks to Iain for the red wool. Thought i would start off trying to tie a blue zulu, then as i have lots of colours of guinea fowl thought i would try a red zulu ! I think i prefer it in red...
