In this live video i will be tying the Traherne pattern Nelly bly to send to a friend, i hope you will like the video.

Pattern description:
Tag: Silver twist and green silk
Tail: Topping.
Butt: Black herl.
Body: In four equal divisions of floss silk: #1, the same colour as the two feathers of the red Crow, which are above and below, and butted with black herl, as also is each of the rest. #2, the silk is the same blue as the four Jays. The best idea I can offer of #3 is that the silk is the same in tone as that of a green parrot, and a few shades darker than the tag; and #4 of magenta silk, each having four jungle cock.
Ribbed: Flat silver tinsel.
Wings: Two red orange Macaw feathers, with one Jay feather on either side, which are from the overgrowth, having blue on both sides of the shaft; two golden toppings above.
Horns: Blue macaw.
Head: Black herl.
