Tip
Tip: Tie floss with a loose wrap first, then wrap back over it for an even body
How to do it: Tie floss with a loose initial wrap, then wrap back over it for an even body
Mistake it fixes: Wrapping floss tightly from the start, creating unevenness
Why it works: A loose first wrap positions floss, then wrapping back evens it into a smooth body.
When it matters most: Fly tying, floss
