Thanks mate, but the credit has to go to Scratch, as the inspiration behind it was his Tandoori Bach, I think that was what it was called, anyway, I refer to it to him as the Raggy Bach, and this is my spin on it....

Very nice mate, I've never seen that type of pattern of the top two before. Looks a useful pattern style.

Divn't worry boot it mate! I like it when a twisted tinsel 'rope' opens a little like that.. kinda natural like I like it sometimes when JC splits like that too! Guess I'm twisted too eh?

Nice one Carol

Chears Mate, I think they are otherwise known as Hackleless Hoppers, but were given the 'Raider' title, not by me.... A similar pattern, without knotted legs and a tad more gold at the head are known as 'Midas' dries.... or 'Goldhead Dries'... I think anyway....

Thanks too mate, I have them all, and all of them work well when utilised, but yet to put them through their paces.

They seem pretty durable mate, even with my hamfisted attempts at twisting them, and two contrasting strands together, they stayed intact.
