This is the pattern in the RodMaker 13-6 issue except this one is done with FisHawk "Brillance" glow in the dark metallic for the design threads and "C" black wrap thread.


On a black background the bat is the black wrap thread with the weave design threads creating the the area behind the bat (so to speak). Some refer to this as a reverse weave pattern. One could also easily modify the pattern to be wrapped on a light background with a light wrap thread and black for the 41 design threads or even do it in 2 layers instead of just one. Any RodMaker subscriber who would like a modified pattern & left-list can contact me and I'll be happy to send it to you. rcadams1957@msn.com

Excellent Ray. I really like the glow in the dark idea with this one.

Very nice. Do you think it should be a little taller? Seems a little compressed height wise but maybe that's just me. Red eyes would look awesome

Thanks guys!


Jim, the proportions are better when the wrap thread size is not so large as in this one with size "C" which is 2 sizes bigger than the "A" design threads.

The mind can play tricks on you. It took me a while to see the Batman. Nice weave.
