    Part 2

    clean & stack a clump of hair and measure for length (hook shank)










    trim hair to length, 2 soft loops and pull firmly; take a couple wraps through the butts to anchor










    half hitch x2, SHHAN; done fly






    Regards,
    Scott



    edit - another option:
    split the thread, dubbed one strand of the split, then inserted cdc and spun it all together; can't get Ice Dub to make a tight body but it seemed to turn out okay
