Got some black lace yarn in the mail. I guess it's a blue charm variant.
I also got some white yarn to experiment with dyes, but that's a story for another day.

Haven't tied flies in a couple of months. Need something visible for murky water this week. These are #8 partridge patriot single hooks. The wing is squirrel tail. The marabou "beard" is inspired by the classic steelhead fly heron hackle. I will pinch the barbs and clip the dangling thread when the head cement is dry.
