TANKY much, Mr. Vince.
The ones with glossy looking "skins" were experiments at stretch covering. All but the one at upper left were covered with material cut from latex or vinyl gloves. The exception was wrapped in a rubber band. I'm on the lookout for more of those ultra thin bands.

The bottom left was wrapped with a shred of poly yarn, twisted with strands of carpet backing fibers. Thorax is black thread covered with sparkle nail polish. The legs are the carpet fibers,b themselves.

Those all look like fish catchin nymphs to me. I especially like the top and very bottom ones on the left side.

So the big question, Jen, is this: Do you think they'll catch fishies?

Thanks, guys. Ya'll will remember I started tying because I wanted an "indoor" hobby. I reckon I've found it. I'm learning a lot, with so much more to go.
Next stop, a way to make it all pay!
