Materials- body: Thread hackle: A light grey/blue hen hackle wings: Starling quill slips head: Thread

Notes:

This is a north country spider pattern with modern substitutions. The pattern calls for a darker head that was darkened by wax. In this case superglue was enough to darken the head to about the right color.
