Hey guys, I have seen some awesome tiger wraps but what is missing was the thread colors used. I started making some very small practice wraps. I plan on doing a pink tiger wrap for my wifes surf rod.
The picture is the first base layer with varnish over it. The second is a top layer of black only. It came out like rainbow color? The base threads are Black Pink and White. I think for the wifes rod I will do a top layer as pink with two sacrificial threads for spacing. Anyone else want to post a pick and thread color they used I would love to see and learn from them without more trial and errors. Re: Practice Tiger Wrap Colors used and inquiry for suggestions

Try the base colors as black and white, with the top color pink, and see how that works. Re: Practice Tiger Wrap Colors used and inquiry for suggestions

I saw the guide, too bad the photos are in black and white!
I will try only using the two base colors. If you use two base colors, how many sacrifical threads should I put on the top layer? DB Re: Practice Tiger Wrap Colors used and inquiry for suggestions

One.
There are a lot of variations that folks have introduced, but the original instructions give tremendous results. Give them a try. ................... Re: Practice Tiger Wrap Colors used and inquiry for suggestions

As Randy stated our best results will be black and white under neath in the same size thread, with pink and a sacrificial thread in the same size as the bottom thread on the top. Wrap loosely and burnish well for more effect.
