The butt wrap is 23" long, I call it Netting Tiger Barbs in the Grape Juice.
There is a lot of thread in this wrap NCP goldenrod,sunburst,orange, scarlet,purple,lt.blue, Metallics-copper,pale gold,purple,red,ice blue, and Trimar-green/gold, black/gold,blue/silver
Better put on your sunglasses-one metallic of same colour NCP, wrapped every three threads, or spiraled together side by side. -looks like brushed aluminum!

It would be great to see the whole "snatcher" series all lined up in a row. Great title too.
