I have a couple pairs of socks made from this
stuff, and I'm on the verge of retiring them to the fly tying table. They're
overly fuzzy with some stiff hails, perfect for stonefly nymphs.

Its good dubbing, though it lacks a certain lustre. I like it for
fuzzy bodies on some bugs
- emergers where the body is meant to be submerged.
Frank's idea of introducing Angelina fibre might be worth a try.

Okay so fess up, who else has been acquiring socks for the tying
potential?
