I like that fly a lot. The backlighting of the body is a very nice touch.

Lovely fly! I think the body is woven.

OK help me here.

Is the brown part the pheasant and the lighter fluffy part turkey marabou?

I do not know how to say, but not marabou, turkey is white, and middle tail feather largest,three to four barbs (I guess it says so).
-It is cut off from the Quill, that would be easier to knit, if you can do tomorrow to do some pictures of the woven body feathers.
